Nothing here today either, and I am not that far from Texas. Usps sucks when it comes to getting packages to you on time!
Hopefully they will still be ok, zoas are really hardy so we shall see.

I emptied my box.. it fills up so fast!

I checked, so far, only chris and killerwhale haven't received theirs.

Chis, I have no idea why.. even first class should have gotten to you!!

and killerwhale, may be because you're on an army base?? I have no idea what the delivery schedule is like there.. and I didn't know you were on an army base when I shipped. Do you get fedex delivery there faster than usps?

oh sorry killerwhale, someone else on army base (i'm getting you confused w/ someone else..).. and they got it already...

and as far as refund, well, I've done my best sending, and I did offer overnight, and shipping wasn't my fault.

I know you already spent money and you ended up with nothing, I'll contact you through pm about it.

I got mine today. The water was cold, but they look solid. I am temperature acclimating now, so I will post on how they look tomorrow.

As for being concerned about them living, there is still a good chance that a week later, they will be fine. I bought some pink stardust from someone earlier this year and the first package arrived two and a half weeks after he shipped it. The pink stardust were dead, but there was another frag or two in there that are alive and well. It was cooler then (back in Jan or Feb, I think), so don't give up hope. Do a temp acclimation and see where it goes from there. If they are cloudy and seem somewhat transparent, chances are not good, but if they arrive looking solid, they have a good chance of pulling through.

kinda weird it took that long to get to you (gflat65) and your even closer yet. And why are you acclimating them finally at almst midnight? I dont know what to think. its alot colder up here then it is down there as I speak it is 42 degrees here. I aint too happy about this transaction at all and seller wont refund a damn dime. Let alone broncos money as well that he had me throw in for a frag.

As far as refunds, killerwhale hasn't received his shipment. He has asked me for almost a complete refund, which I would be out $$ for paying for thermos and heatpack and shipping.

And btw, not RPE... Orange PE, aka Orange Envy.

Again if you have issues, I will work with you in pms, I'm an honest person, just doing my annual fragging and sharing frags which I did purchase at a very high price (was $25/polyp but now $100/polyp) on reefenvy.com (you can check there)

I cannot help it that shipping took so long and i'm worried too! But honestly, I have done all that I can to make a smooth transaction. I feel bad if the corals died too! so I'm willing to work with you in pms please.

I didn't ship it wrong. I shipped priority just like Killerwhale had requested and I have the confirmation number. Priority is not a guaranteed 2 days, and as I posted in the first page, I will ship on Tuesday and sellers will be taking the risk of shipping. i also explained very clearly what I was going to do in every message I sent out.

One of mine has not opened and the other one is considered dead. The polyps are covered in a slime and they are not doing anything. The other one is maybe going to open, but it has been 2 days and I am not sure. Next time I will pay for overnight.
