Here's a story about a tough little frag that I bought. I found a chalice that I wanted on a sponsor's site and I asked him, "If I bought the chalice could you ship out on 11/29 as I'll be on vacation" and he replied "Yes, that's fine"!
I bought the chalice and paid for it on 11/19. The seller shipped the item on the 11/22 and it arrived at my door 11/23. The house sitter just put the box in the corner and didn't tell me it arrived. So the poor little frag just sat in the box until 11/29.
I came home and found the box in the corner. I said to my wife "There's a DOA"! To my surprise, the coral was still alive. So I stuck it in the tank! The frag receded a little but is now starting to grow out. :bigsmile: I was just amazed that the frag lived that long in the box. As compared to when I buy a new frag locally and it melts in 4 hours. Maybe all my new frags should be left in a box for a week! jk lol
The sponsor is a great seller and I have no problem with him!
