I had a similar experience a few years ago. I ordered a fish from LA divers den. It shipped out as expected, but a few hours later, there was an "exception" notice. Apparently the truck got in an accident and didn't make the flight. It took 48 hours (this was before UPS Saturday delivery) and me pleading with UPS to let me pick it up at the sorting center.
I was sure the fish was dead (water was 50 degrees) but I acclimated anyway. After about 45 minutes, I saw a leg twitch (it was an angler). He lived for 3 days until I found him stuck on the filter intake. A healthy fish doesn't get stuck. I got the money back, but I (like everyone else) just wants a healthy fish.
