they should be fine. if they do happen to not make it, I have some for you. But you'll have to drive way over to my side of town, Glendale.

Its only been two days and as buggle said they should be just fine. Did you acclimate them properly?

They still havent opened and i acclimated them for 15 min do they like strong current because they are under a current from one of my power heads but it's not beaming on them though

GSP pretty much have to be nuked to die on you, if the mat is still there I wouldn't worry...

Often times, pachyclavularia (star polyp) and their clavularia (clove polyp) cousins are shipped dry in damp newspaper, which may prevent them from opening up immediately. Given time, they should begin to slowly come out of their mat.
