Goin' all Ace Ventura on my shipment
#1
This was attempt number two at bringing in some golden hydei via the postal service...everytime I see a box like this I get a mental picture of the opening of Ace Ventura Pet Detective when Jim Carey is punting his fragile delivery down the side walk. These guys just nailed this box right smack on the handle with care sticker:
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
At least enough survived that I got 2 starter cultures going Smile

Darts with parasites are analogous to mixed tanks, there are no known benefits to the frogs with either.


If tone is more important to you than content, you are at the wrong place.

Of course, FedEx isn't without its moments too; this cctv capture was going around late last year:

It's going to happen from time to time and it happens with all the carriers. When millions of packages are be delivered every once in awhile this happens. Most of the damaged packages get that way on a conveyor belt that does not know if a fragile sticker has been placed on it or not. Most of the people delivering do not intentionally mishandle boxes but there will always be the dick in the crowd. It just sucks more when their is something breakable/live in the box.
