    Sorry to hear they didn't make it. (ticks me off).
    Jeff would send them in these tiny bags (like what the plants came in) with nothing but a stalk of plant when the weather was almost 90f here and mine made it with a 3 day transit.

    I'll try to send you another batch if these eggs do well...I did the ziploc cuz I was scared the kordons would leak being they felt weak to me....and you know the post office and liquids.

    The filter arrived today, that thing is a beast on the flow! >>had to rearrange equip to get it to fit. Lol!

    Sounds good. Yeah, the bags do seem thin but I guess they have to be to allow oxygen in somehow.

    Man did the water in the plant bag stink ! :) I got everything planted the best I could without having any aquascaping skills.

    Yeah it creates a massive flow which is why I couldn't keep it on the 20 with the Angels. It was fine with the Zebra Danios, they're pretty strong little fish.

    Well next time you have plecos ready to ship I'm paying you more.

    :confused: I couldn't tell there was one with the plants. It just smelled like dirty mud water. :)

    The pleco bag didn't stink though ?

    Uh huh, you wait and see. [rofl]

    Yeah, the plants arrived perfect. I only threw away two little pieces and a few leaves I pulled off the bottom of some stalks so I could plant them.

    the pleco bag has one..I got a few tabs wet from bagging them and tossed the 3 wet ones into the other bag.

    Both were sent with just my tank water (plecos and plants)

    Yeah, I knew the plecos had one because the water was blue. My point was that the pleco water didn't smell but the plant bag did. :)

    wow, that's really odd.
    <--mom said she will go up and nap/keep eye on aunt so I can go score some olive gardne as soon as hubby gets in. Yay!

    Ps. I could send you adults of the bristlenose and try with just the kordon bag and some packaging peanuts if you like?

    honestly, that's right on the money...with all the plants I honestly don't know what I all have.

    found a glass catfish last night that I thought didn't make it. Haha!
    The thing is monsterous (at least 4")...apparently he hides all day?

    LoL Dawn, it's bad when you discover a 4" fish in your tank you didn't know you had.

    Lol, I know. haha!

    I think he hid out in the white caves (in the back)?
    Actually my son pointed him out during the early am...and was like this is the big one I keep seeing at night, but can't find in the day. Haha!
