About SWF.com ordering

I would like to order corals for my tank... Would they survive the trip to Upstate New York this time of year? I would order some but I am afraid they would die.....Any thoughts on this? Thanks Jason

The host here has excellant packaging and with overnight service I'd have no concerns about the shipment. I've got a package due to arrive today and expect they'll be in the same great condition all the previous packages have been in. :thinking:

I believe they are packaged with heatpacks, which would work for anywhere in the country

i just received yesterday an order of live rock from here. it was packed in a heavy plastic bag, encased in a nice styrofoam container. very happy with how it came.

make sure you follow the acclimation procedures or you will void the guarentee.

yes IMO this is the VERY BEST place to place an online order

I bought two shipments from SWF.com last December and when I got them there was ZERO die off. Everything was healthy and after accumilation everybody was zipping across the tank. Very impressive. The only thing I have a problem with is that I am a high schooler and I can only purchase things that will be delivered when I'm on break because when ever I want top have it delivered on saturday that option is never avaliable so I'm not spending too much money here. And buying $79 is a lot for one purchase when you're on a tight budget.
