Being an eel... You should see the screen top keeping him in. It's made for a 40 breeder and I have a big piece of pukani on top of it to hold it down. It's oversized, but the cables keep it from sitting flush. I'm hoping once the clips come from @Scurvy the red sea lid will do the job.

Packages left Louisville at 0637 EST. Scheduled for delivery by 1200. Hopefully we have good news.

Recieved my packages... good and bad news.
The yellow banded possum wrasse did not make it. Both bags were extremely cold to the touch even tho the heat pack still had a tiny bit of heat left. Poor little guy... I can't imagine freezing to death. Probably the worst way to go.

The good news. The flame tail blenny made it! She was cold as well, but was moving around in the bag and got a nice long temperature acclimation before being hand placed into the aquarium.
It's hard to see because of the lack of light, we placed the order with Dave from Nanobox, just waiting on it to be made and shipped out, but she's got a super bright yellow tail. They look similar to the bicolor blenny, but the color difference is more dramatic between the black head and bright yellow tail.
I've also added in a barnacle cluster for her to live in. She went under a rock for now, but once she gets over shipping she'll find it.
Aku hasn't noticed his new tank mate yet, he's in his cave thing.

The blenny made it thru the night. I saw her in Aku's hidey hole in the rock. He's been staying under the rock now that is in a tank with sand.

Are you going to get a refund for the dead fish?
Looks like Aku is happy, is that a smile on his face....I was just thinking is it Aku or Ack-her .....Bummer not getting your fish....Who ships out of Minneapolis?

Yes, I contacted customer support as soon as the fish was found to be DOA and they have issued me a full refund. Live Aquaria has always had healthy livestock, but unfortunately I have had 2 DOAs and one that passed in the first 24 hours. In all three cases they refunded my money with no hesitation or hoops to jump thru.

I created, and added a link to post #3, a media album dedicated to this tank. If you wish to see any pictures of this tank, instead of scrolling thru tons of pages on this thread hop over to the media album and check them all out there.
Also, first ever FTS is on that post as well.

That is awesome. My thread got so long I kind of did the same creating the Ancillary thread in my signature.
