all i got to say is

NEVER SHIP USPS, THEY SUCK!

I once ordered clown loachs and they were shipped usps, they smashed up the box, killed 2 and overnight shipping turned into 3 days. USPS IS A POS!
 
i had my fish come from seattle and they sat at the airport for 3days before i came and rescued them

nah, I had 3 rhom's come from NJ and they said it would be 48 hours before I got them and I took the chance. I let the post office know that they should call me as soon as they came in. It was a total of 29 hours. They called right away, the fish were in great shape. And they were barely over an inch long. I'd still ship USPS.
 
this is my first time dealing with them. Hard to judge off of only one time, but I dont want to chance it with them again if I'm dealing with live fish. I've heard many bad things.
I think this will be my last winter purchase through the mail ever, and maybe my last time with USPS.
 
I also voted alive for the hope, but I'm not sure at this point.. sad to say. If you shipped him via someone who has shipped before, and knows how to pack, Then, you never know. I'll say a prayer to St. Francis. Perhaps we all should.
 
I live in San Francisco....I had fish shipped to me from Detroit during the winter....USPS delivered in 4 days....I have used USPS live shipment almost 40times....From snakes to fish, not one problem....Year round....

NEVER use usps for any kind of shipping, they are terrible. When shipping fish try UPS, atleast they havnt screwed up on my fish orders yet.......
