We have ordered from J&L in the past and had no issues...we live in Alberta. We also fly coral in from Toronto to Edmonton (4-5 hour flight) quite frequently and have never had any issues. They pack Coral to live outside of the tank for 24-48 hours so I think you will be fine.

J&L very good to deal with; fabulous live animal packaging.

Word to the wise Dendronephthya ( Carnation Coral ) has a super high mortality rate in captivity

They are super beautiful; however rarely survive a long time.
