My frags are in the tank!

[Dripline]

Woohoo!

They look just fine.

Thanks Burc, for sending me my replacements.

And a special thank-you to Rukus for picking up the package and keeping the frags nice and warm. Loved seeing your tank too! Highlight of my day!

Mine are in too! I'm at work until 10 but I'll add to this some pics as soon as I can.

Mine looked great when I left and one of the Zoanthid frags actually were starting to open after only about 40 minutes of being in the tank! Can't wait to see if they started colouring up!

Hmm well you'd think that weyburn is in the middle of a farmers field.Regina and saskatoon got there orders,our parcel was recieved at fedex the same time this morning.EXCEPT we don't get delivered until tommorrow.What a joke,i'll never use fedex....nice frags by the way.

Hi Nina

Good to hear that you are happy :)

Thanks
Burc

[Dripline]

And thank you! The zoas and palys have opened up nicely and are checkin out their new digs! :)

[shroom]

Well some fellow delivered the box this morning,from our bus depot.I guess fedex hands off some of there items to the bus ??

[Dripline]

I have no idea what Weyburn's up to...they sound confused...

Hope everything is okay. Let us know.

Seeing as we get boatloads of orders from couriers because of our stores here is the downlow.

Fedex regular freight utilizes their own couriers to do the Estevan/Weyburn run
Fedex overnight which is air and for some reason gets transloaded to STC for delivery. I think it is because the order hits Fedex around 830am and the local Estevan/weyburn truck has already left Regina by then. BTW...the Weyburn STC terminal sucks ass and that is why you got yours late. it's not really Fedex's fault, more of an STC thing.

[shroom]

I just don't understand why they wouldn't have been on the bus,yesterday ? I'm almost at 100% loss,mark and jason,the softie guys will do alright.

[Dripline]

I'd be totally upset.

Is there any other way you can get prompt delivery?

[inker666]

yeah...seem to be fine as zoos go but lost my acros as well...

[TheMikey]

As promised, my pics!

Firstly, the shrimp wanted some camera time and wouldn't let me get a good shot of some others till I got him:

I also got some Nuclear Halo zoanthids, but they haven't opened yet. I'll update my main thread with some cropped photos tomorrow!

[inker666]

correction...everything was lost...guess we will know better next time shroom!!!:BangHead:

[Dripline]

TheMikey - excellent! I'm glad they're doing so well!

inker666: So sorry to hear everything was lost. Do you guys have other shipping options available? Or will they replace the frags (cost)?

[inker666]

well shipping...who knows, as far as replacement...not realy his fault so i guess we will have to see where that goes as well:thumbdown

[TheMikey]

Sorry to hear about the shipment to Weyburn ): Hopefully things turn out the best!

[Dripline]

well shipping...who knows, as far as replacement...not realy his fault so i guess we will have to see where that goes as well:thumbdown

No...I meant will the courier/post office reimburse you. If they agree to ship livestock I believe they might have an obligation to make sure it arrives healthy...

[hillbillyreefer]

Is there another courier that Fedex hands their freight off too? Same thing has happened to me. Next time I'll get it shipped on the courier that FedEx hands off to and cut them out entirely. That way it should get to it's destination on time. For my area they hand off to DHL. There has to be someone that goes to Weyburn daily. Talk to some of the oilfield supply outfits, they seem to deal with all the couriers and usually will act as a drop point for you.

[hillbillyreefer]

What happened with the dead stuff? Has anyone heard back from Burc? I've been emailing him for a couple days now and haven't heard a peep from him.

[j_hammer]

ya have been trying to but nothing.

[hillbillyreefer]

Me too. Not going to start slagging yet but it's getting close.
