My "Overnight" Order

[Words]

It was shipped out on Thursday from a company I've usually had good dealings with, but because of a plane delay, it wont get here until Monday. I have a school of Skunk Loaches and Panda Corys in this order.

What are the chances of my fish making it here alive?

That's what I thought. That's really sad too. 14 fish, dead.

Well that's 4-day shipping. People have had success with priority which can take up to 3 days, so don't lose hope

Just curious, where did you order from?

Yup def dead. Up north here it's pretty damn cold. I just lost a gar that was supposed to be here yesterday and got here today.

all depends how well the shipper package it. but those seems like hardy tough fish. worse case i think you'll have a few survivors.

Really hoping for at least some survivors, the Corys are for my daughter's tank.

Honestly if they were alive I would say your the luckiest person ever to get fish. They more than likely packed a 24-36 hour heat pack not a 4 day heat pack which they don't even make. They make 72 hour ones (3 days). So if they are alive....your damn lucky.

The fish you ordered are cheap, their not expensive at least. They should be able to refund the price of fish or ship out new ones, you would have to pay shipping though. That's what a honest business would do at least.
