Bonsai Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 im assuming you're using the one in the pics? how much of a temperature increase are you getting with it on? No increase ... my temperature, according to my Coralife Digital Thermometer is 77.8 - 78.0 constantly. Link to comment
Bonsai Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 I just called the glass company - and all six lids are cut and finished! I'll pick them up in the morning and with any luck - get them all mailed out tomorrow. To make sure they get to everyone quickly, I'm going to ship them USPS Priority Mail with Insurance.

Bonsai Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 Lids are on their way! I packaged and drove them to the post office today. They were sent USPS Priority Mail with Insurance and should start arriving Monday/Tuesday. In the unlikely event that a shipment is damaged during transit, please notify me ASAP via PM so we can get the USPS insurance process started immediately. Thanks! Enjoy! Link to comment

Bonsai Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 Now Hear This! Now Hear This! It sounds like the first round of custom glass Picotope lids have been delivered, and the reaction so far has been positive. If you were not able to order one the first time around, please let me know, in this thread, if you would like to order one for the second time around. I'm considering a second order, to be placed on Monday, August 4th. Do not PayPal me yet! I want to make sure we can put together an order of at least 5 lids before I turn the template back over to the glass shop folks. So -- if you want a lid -- chime in! Payment would be due by midnight on August 3rd. Jason Link to comment

It was VERY nicely packed but this still happened....stupid USPS... DAMN! Please file a claim through USPS ... they should refund you the price of the lid ($27.50): http://www.usps.com/insuranceclaims/online.htm Sorry about that! Maybe it's still semi-usable. Damn USPS. At least they're full insured. Jason EDIT: shp111 and xero404, I PMed you both. Link to comment

So far, it sounds like out of six, only two were damaged in shipment. For xero404 and shp111, I have messaged them. The re-order is still in effect if we get enough interest. Let me know!

Bonsai Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 i have NOT recieved mine Your shipping status shows: Your item was processed and left our ATLANTA, GA 30320 facility on July 27, 2008. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later. I would call USPS and find out where the package is actually at ... 1-800-275-8777. Their websites shows that from my zip code to yours, it's only 2 days via Priority Mail. Today is going on 5. Jason Link to comment

Bonsai Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 i still dont know why it took so long if you shipped priority Awesome. Hopefully that means it'll be delivered today. From MI to MS should not have taken Friday - Wednesday via Priority Mail. I guess we can just be thankful that it isn't something alive, like Coral! Jason Link to comment

definitemaybe Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I think you can put me on the list for one of these. My high rate of evaporation is getting old fast on this small tank. Got a total on what it would be to zip 37211? Thanks for getting these lids done for us. Dustin Link to comment
