Well, all the fish got here ok. The clown loach has one of the neatest patterns I've seen and what my husband thought was a pencilfish is actually a Leporinus striatus (luckily I collect headstanders so that makes me happy). He also picked up a really fat 16 in. fire eel.
Didn't end up getting any of the flagtails though. Maybe next time.
Immediately upon hitting the tank the Geo started sifting sand so I don't think he was stressed at all.
