How long can fish survive in the bag?

[mikester311]

I mad an order from this site which was delivered to my house this morning.. I won't get off of work until 6:00 tonight.. Will everything be ok for the next 6 1/2 hours? I just don't know how long fish/shrimp/crabs can live from the time shipped?
Thanks!

they will be fine. assuming it's not too hot or cold out i try to have my shipments sent to work though due to climate control. plus my workmates love seeing the stuff

How long depends on what it is and what the temp is and verything else. Most package them for 48 hours.

They will probably be fine. If there is a friend or relative nearby. Maybe they can pick them up.

My son was home to put the box in the house, so it's climate controlled. I just won't be home for a while to acclimate everything. It sounds like I have nothing to worry about for the next several hours.
Thanks for the responses!!
