When they didn't arrive I contacted my partner to learn that he had sent them to my home address instead of the alternate address. before leaving for vacation I had placed a hold on my mail deliveries so everything was held at the post office until my return. Sure enough, the frags had been held at the PO for six days so when I received them I was planning on receiving a putrefied mess. I was totally surprised when I opened the container and they looked ok. The were closed, but looking good otherwise. I slowly let them warm up and placed the in quarantine. Today they are starting to open up!! Six days in a cold dark thermos and the survived. It just goes to show just how tuff these little corals are.

Hi Art,
Glad to here that your swap went well! They are tough little buggers, that they are..... Sub-32 temps will tend to put a bit of a bite on them, as some of us found out....
