What's the point of your post?
These Synos were shipped to me at 1/2" - 3/4" is that a problem?
It's definitely not an issue for for me as I have no problem shipping
(or receiving) small fish. If the fish are healthy to begin with (like mine)
then they can withstand just about anything during transit. I actually
prefer small fish because they ship 300% better then adults which
includes just about any popular species from cheap African cichlids
to expensive zebra plecos. And let me tell you these little Synos are
tough as nails since they can be easily kept with Malawi or Tanganyikan
cichlids 5-6 times their size. Just for the record, I have 20 years of
experience breeding African cichlids and almost 5 years of experience
breeding plecos and other catfish besides having owned a pet store in 1994.
