I got a large shipment from Biota (no tangs) and everything except two little gobies were fine and are still thriving months later. Sometimes, shipping is just hard on them. Especially UPS. I had a guy flip the box around in the air while I watched and it said live animals this side up all over it. Some people.
Ever see Ace Ventura imitate the delivery guy. So accurate it is sad.
True, unfortunately we have no control once our livestock leaves the shipping facility. I wish we could opt to pay extra and have them shipped directly through airline cargo and pickup from the airport like wholesalers do.
I know I'm probably the minority with bad luck with fish shipments but I'm just not going to risk it and buy local instead.
