Frag shipping survival poll

[mark]

Goes to this recent group order, wondering on average when get frags sent by courier (UPS etc) what's the survival rate?

I'm at 2 okay out of 5 when shipped, though 100% okay when had hand delivered by Snappy.

2 of 5... I'm out $30

For my order in Calgary I have 100% survival 72 hours after arrival. A couple zoo heads are still closed but remain healthy. My SPS was showing polyps within an hour of being out of the bags.

I would not be happy with anything less than 100% survival. I paid for it, I want to recieve it in good order. Thats why I try to refrain from getting livestock in the winter months

it was my first time ordering anything! I guess I learnt that lesson! lol

Im at 4/5 survival with a majority of my order being zoas.

IME, if you order from a reputable vendor there should be no issue regarding survival based on the time of year. Just my experience.

This was my first experience with ordering online. Only 3 of the 12 zoa frags I ordered have opened. Of the rest several have started disintegrating and the rest look shriveled and unhappy. At this point I blame FedEx because they screwed up and delayed delivery by an extra day so I hope the replacements will be in better shape.

seems like it would be easier to keep a package warm then cold would it not?
