ok well here goes i recieved the package this morning that seemed to be packed very well until I opened the bags... there was ice in the bags the fish were stiff dead this is why i always say to throw in more longer 24hr heat packs in this weather .. so from dead I freaked out and just got crazy mad... But I took one fish at a time and put them into the return line of one of my fx5's with an air stone under it as well for about 20 minutes and got him back then the 2 smaller ones at the same time got pinched by their spines but i didnt care they all made it .. put them into the 110 that was setup just for them and some geos and thru a hell of alot of salt in it along with prime and had the temp set to 86 and so far so good . this was the first time I ever did this but thanks to alot of you out there that shared how they did it and it stuck in my head and I'm still in shock on how they survived..... the heat packs did not last the too were ice cold and I just could not believe how there was literally ice in the bags. To HEAVEN and BACK again unreal what a freaking scare.... I will post pics very soon!!!
To Heaven and Back Again! Fish delivery !
