Are you kidding me? Unfrigginbelievable.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Dayum!! It totally surprises me! Water params, crazy temp drop and whatever oxygen levels could of been at... And you're rare sp red still survived?? I said "GOSH DAMN"!
Im most interested in how you acclimated him? Slow,med, quickly added warmer water to desired temperature?

(Was i right on the species lol)

All the Cuda were dead. Pack of Gold Wolves dead. The red and green Lacs are still kicking.

Story isn't over... lol. I was supposed to pickup from Fedex at 9 am Friday. Found out package was "lost". Had to burn day of vacation from work on Friday on standby waiting for box. Saturday morning standby wait for box, still lost. Moved Sat though. Monday morning rolls around I call before work as I'm tracking this thing like a hawk refreshing every other minute. It's there. I call. Lady informs me I can come get the box at 9 when they open. I go to work. Sent girlfriend to pickup dead fish. She dumps them all into a bucket and 2 made bubbles. She temped it at 38 degrees after she started dripping the 2 wolves. She dripped them for 2 hours slowly bringing them to mid 70s. They were both belly up in the bucket not moving. Stacy said she saw bubbles and gills moving so called me at work telling me she was trying to save them. Pretty stoked she went through all that. Looks like the hard work and time spent acclimating paid off..... One has began eating already.

I still can't believe it. Was fully prepared for a box of dead fish. According to reports the box definitely smelled of dead fish. :( Similar reports also say the packing WAS top notch! :D

Jay- Would be nice if things worked out that way, but unfortunately anyone that's went rounds with Fedex knows it's usually not the case. :(

Thanks Don! I definitely can't disagree with you..... ;)

E - It's actually 4 different pics, trying to focus on each wolf, 2 different angles. I believe the darker colored one is the red.....

Joe - Not sure which you're after but if you want the dead ones we could probably make that happen, if after live ones Wes would be your guy, as I hear there's a few left.....

Tia a shame the pantaniero cudas died. Convinced a buddy to get one (mainly to save me shipping costs) and he absolutely loves it. Have a video of it feeding actually I'll ask him permission before I post
