this post,my first ever not realy for jas and lindsey more for those of us somewhat disabled or stuck in odd places!coral these days are not to problematic especially when you can pick up the phone to enthusiastic and friendly soles as above-but fish that is a different matter,build up a nice tank with coral but few fish occasional pal picks up odd fish when travelling kind but a little independance can make a huge difference to those in my position so to the point of this ramble,was ordering some coral from jason he mentioned getting in some anthias(coopers)and at what i would call a bargain price would include them in coral shipment which is overnight!so with some trepadation i took his hand off,the box arrived about one pm(bomb proof)i opened having already prepared myself for sad tidings but hey water still warm took off news paper two seperatly bagged fish still swimming around,three plastic bags last one corner taped and inverted with a sprinkle of carbon in water,climatised for a short while let fish out within ten min.they were out and feeding with other fish-amazed!!my fear has dissapeared regards overnighting delicate fish possibilities are now endless(well as far as money will alow)as i said at beggining this more for those of us in tricky situations-sorry for long speil trust me it took much longer to write than you to read!!
ps.corals,cat/sun/monti and sps frags are blinding as well-so a big thank you both is also in order.
regards graham.

Nice one. Glad to hear the fish arrived safely. It just goes to show that with a little bit of care and thought on the packing side, healthy fish can be shipped successfully. Post some pics when you get a chance.
