Hi guys.

I ordered some coral online. They were collected yesterday at midday and were meant to be delivered today by midday. Long story short, we thought they'd been stolen but my neighbor had them until 10:30pm so 36 hours after packing
The water is cold so I've just floated the bags in my sump. What should I do now to give them the best chance should any of them still be alive?
 
If you have qt i would put straight in(after temp acclimated through float). If going to a dt i would still dip and inspect them all.
 
Personally, I wouldn't worry about it. Nothing you can do anyway. I would have gone straight to the dip and into the tank. I never temp or drip acclimate my corals.

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
