everyone who sent me paypal had theirs ship today except c42480's (i forgot a bag at home and thankfully s/he's being understanding). i figured his location is safest to get to him before the weekend. couldn't do the rubble rock this time, but everyone got some hermit snail shells instead 
I alternate my lights, and actually since my timers are sorta fubared right now i'm manually alternating them and accidentally left the fuge light on for 36 hrs and during a water change (no flow through it) and the chaeto didn't like it. of course, there was so much in there that some was sticking out of the water as well. (don't worry, no one got that nasty smelling stuff LOL).
thanks kevin for the kind words, i rarely check there, but should probably post about the previous shipment. how's it growing?

chaeto and caleurpa are both macro algaes.
the difference is caleurpa is a leafy algae, where chaeto is a stringy algae. caleurpa can also have little balls on it, if it is grape caleurpa.
they both technicallydo the same thing. problem is the leavs on caleurpa can rot, putting all those nutrients they took out back into your water.

You're right, it was 2 days, I've been off all week because of the holiday....lol. Anyhow, no the box was not wet at all. All 3 baggies were sealed upon arrival. I don't care how many times you write on the boxes whether it be Fragil, This Side Up, or what, I don't think they pay any attention. We're probably very lucky when something arrives in good shape. I've had things that looks like they played football with, they just don't care. But, all in all, I still think that the USPS gets things to people faster than UPS. They take forever. Thanks, again! I left you positive feedback, by the way.
