etropical / liveaquaria group buy !

[jhale]

I just called both orders in.
Everything was in stock, I had the orders sent priority, for an extra $10 each. That will get them to my door by 10:30 am via fedex.

I'll post the cost of the paypal transaction fees later on.

BC has offered to help come over and help out, anyone else who has time and would like to come over is welcome. you don't have to, but it's not everyday you see an order for $900 of fish, coral, and inverts.

again if you have not sent me your phone number please do that now.

thanks,

Jonathan

[jhale]

thanks Dean,
I'm glad it's done

[Deanos]

Ooooo....it's not done yet. Not to scare you, but you still have delivery, acclimating, sorting, pickup, payments...hmmmm nevermind.

 

[jhale]

that's the fun part. most of the payments are done, except for a couple of dollars here and there.
as long as fed-ex does not screw up it should be fine. that's why i had them sent priority I hope they get more attention in the system that way.

 

[spykes]

10 in the morning? i think i might be able to do it in the morning like early... around 11

 

[jhale]

you don't need to be there when the order comes, I'm just letting you know when the stuff should arrive.
any time after 11 is fine. if your going to be there early let me know and I won't open your bags.

 

[Deanos]

Jonathan, I should be there by 5pm, but don't open my bags. A simple float will do. Too many acclimations may be detrimental to the health of my inverts.

John, I guess you could leave mine in the bag too. I'll be there by 4pm.

[jhale]

okay, maybe I should float everything?
I'm afraid for the fish though.

 

[nanoreefer22]

I would start to worry about the fish if the person buying it is not able to pick up the same day.

Floating everything else would be a good idea.

 

[Andy]

Hey, Jonathan. Did you get my PM earlier?

 

[Deanos]

If you're worried about the fish, maybe you could just open the bag to let air in. I wouldn't stress them out any further by acclimating them to your water, rebagging then re-acclimating them when they get home. JMO

Hey J, You can float mine to. I'll be there early around 11. Let me know what I owe you.
Jay

 

[jhale]

I'll see how they are packed, and how they look.
If the fish look fine, I'll leave them in the bag, if they don't look good I'm going to drip acclimate them.
I keep my water at 1.024-5 ph 8.4, temp 79 alk 8 ca 430

 

[jhale]

okay, here's the final cost's. these are the paypal transaction fee's and the priority shipping.

and for those that could not paypal your total is included.

for those that ordered from etropicals the shipping split is .83 for liveaquaria the split is 1.43, both = 2.26


deanos - paid 62.98 fee= 2.13 + 2.26 = $4.39

hitsnorth - paid 24.99 fee= 1.02 + 1.43 = $2.45

joseney21- paid 73.00 fee= 2.42 + 1.43 = $3.85

jay212-paid 25.66 fee=1.04
paid 51.50 fee=1.79 +2.26 = $5.09

ctx - paid 24.00 fee=1.00 + .83 = $1.83

mmike 1992-paid 47.50 fee=1.68 +.83 = $2.51

ricordiaking - paid 79.50 fee = 2.61 + .83 = $3.44

aaron - owes 6.50 + .83 = $7.33

scotty- owes 32.20 + .83 = $33.03

mpisciotti- owes 85.25 + .83 = $86.08

nanoreefer - owes 4.00 + .83 = $4.83

andy- owes 50.00 + .83 = $50.83 - $40 for frags = $10.83

spykes - owes 42.99 + 1.43 = $44.42

BC included paypal fee's- owes $2.26
