Sadly it did not, it appears to have been dead a couple of days already. The porcelain crab and the blastos appear to have survived though. The anthelia I ordered looks pretty rough but still has a few stalks remaining. Quote Link to comment
gone_PHiSHin Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 sorry to hear Lula im guessing you have to eat that cost huh? most online fish stores won't take any responsibility for DOA if the package gets held up due to the shipping company... Quote Link to comment

Actually, it's supposed to be back in my Paypal account by the end of the week! Just depends how fast it moves with tomorrow being a holiday. I might have helped that I had them in the loop the whole time and they were also communicating with UPS trying to make things happen. Quote Link to comment

It's Live Aquaria, I'd ordered from their Diver's Den division. Some people haven't had great experiences with them but I've always been impressed with their customer service. They're part of Doctors Foster and Smith. 1 Quote Link to comment

frahny Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 No real update here, waiting on premium aquatics to get my clown in. Pretty certain when I pick him up I'm going to add a panamic barnacle blenny. I have cash in my pocket and need a place to spend it! Was thinking about placing an order for a few frag packs from aquasd but it looks like there site is down. Gonna try and call them tomorrow and see what I can't work out. Anyone have any other sites they like to order from? I need some more life in the tank, I'm also going to pick up some sexies and some sort of crab anemone maybe?! Help me spend some cash folks! 1 Quote Link to comment

gena Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Nice tank! I love those clowns . I've found that rockscapes only really matters in the beginning before your corals grow in. Eventually you won't even see the rock . Especially in this size of tank. I have an IM 10 as well and you can't see much rock right now. 3 Quote Link to comment

frahny Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 So check this garbage out, added a fire fish to the tank today and it pretty much stayed in hiding till GoT wrapped up. While I was watching the fish swim around at a distance I noticed my large zoa colony wasn't green anymore. Upon sneaking up on the tank being careful not to scare the ? Out of the firefish I notice one of my ceriths was in the glass. Not sure how long he was under the zoa colony but it was long enough that the bivalve or something in the frag had attached itself to him. Up he went. Can't make this craziness up! 1 Quote Link to comment
