Well this was the first time that I ordered fish online and low and behold, they were held up at Fedex.
They arrived this morning a day late and the Flame Angel was in deep distress, he was in the bag bobbing out of the water and the first thing I thought about was amonia burning. So rather than a slow drip acclimation I poured both fish into the shipping box and slowly changed out the water a cup at a time.
Initially the angel was flipping and bobbing out of the water but after 4 cup changes over the hour or so, he calmed down and is swimming mostly normal
I feel pretty confident that he will make it...I hope.
The other guy is an algae blenny, he was fine, nothing bothers the inexpensive fish lol
My daughter was quick to name them so Chilli and Ranboo
