Frozen Frags

Has anyone ever had frags recover when they were encased in slush or frozen. What did you do for them? Right now I just have them floating in a QT tank trying to thaw.

I have to ask, how did that happen?

UPS lost the shippment, suppost to be here Tues. By 8:00 that night I got worried and checked the tracking again. It said it was delivered at 5:11 but nothing was here. Called UPS to find it. Got up just before 2 this afternoon and found a frozen package on my front step with no knock or Doorbell.

Being that corals are alive I would have to say your frags are toast.

ya I have to agree but still have to try. They were all the nice frags from Wickeds last auction.

Oh man, I hope they were insured. Was whatching that auction. Lovely pieces

Wow, that sucks. I absolutely loathe shipping with UPS.

Aww man, that SUX. I would be Extremely pi$$3d. I'd be tearing a strip off UPS, insurance or not.

Well they have been floating for an hour, Droped the temp in the QT about 2 deg. I'm pretty sure the Torch and Frogspawns are gone and the Cyphastreas have what looks like brown tissue floating in the water. All others are hard to tell. Acans and Favias have lost all color. One zoo frag all closed up.
