Well, he sent me a email back saying he will send me more next week at no cost, this time with heat packs....so I guess we will see, hopefully he will not only add the heat packs but pack them better this time.
In the mean time my mom let me use her camera to get a couple shots of the two surviors.

That blue crap is bag buddies some transhippers believe in them but all it does is slow down their metabolism and places them in a state of stupor.. really doesn't add Oxygen like one would think.. basically poisoning fish..
Sorry to hear that G at least he is replacing the DOA's most sellers don't even do that and another reason i don't buy fish off line hehehe.. again sorry but the two you have look pretty darn good..

Thanks guys!!!
So I have calmed down some, the poor guys they seem to be doing alright now. When I first got them out they were "gasping" with their little fins goin about 100mph I wasn't sure they were going to make it either. I kept checking on them and well they did seem to come out of it pretty good. They are still not swimming around as much as I would like..I'm sure it was due to the crap in the water.
Anyway, they do look nice I agree and hopefully the next ones will be in good condition when they get here and look just as good! I think I'll send him a message and ask him to just not add that stuff or at least not as much..the water was soooo blue you could barely see the fish in there, seriously. I am giving the guy a chance to correct it, cause I do think it was nice of him (and the right thing to do) to offer to send me new ones at no cost. We will see how the next ones turn out before I decide what I think of him or how I will talk about him.
It is funny, they both have one egg spot in the same spot...one has a white one the other yellow!
