I was supposed to receive a delivery from Blue zoo on Friday (9/4). Unfortunately due to some unknown hold up in Illinois and the holiday on Monday FedEx could not deliver the package until today (9/8). I spent so much time on the phone with FedEx this weekend it’s ridiculous. I even offered to come get the fish when they finally landed in Jacksonville, FL (I won’t bore you with the frustration I felt dealing with their customer service).
So obviously I assumed I would be coming home to dead fish. I open the package and holy crap there is a live melanurus wrasse and live urchin! Unfortunately the jawfish perished during the trip.
Got them acclimated the best I could. Fingers crossed they will make it over the next couple days. Obviously they looked very stressed.
Just wanted to say for those out there don’t lose hope even if shipment gets delayed. When you think about it those fish that made it lived 5 days in a plastic bag (when you consider they were packaged Thursday last week and weren’t deliver until today)!
