Delighted to report my shipment arrived: I never saw so much packing.
I had:
1. a cerise acropora: excellent condition, not a polyp dinged or out of order, well-grown to its base.
2. 2 bumblebee shrimp. These were a surprise. I was a little dismayed to find they were the size [and general appearance] of a horsefly, and I put them into my tank with some trepidation, thinking I'd never see them again. Wrong. One came buzzing through midtank, and has remained at work in a nook of the rock, completely visible and apparently very healthy.
3. a tailspot blenny: I haven't gotten a good look at him yet, but he seems fair-sized and vigorous, in hiding.
4. the spongiops [red striped] gobies: the first one, the smaller, arrived with a bit of a problem, but I think we have it solved. He-she-it wouldn't leave the surface, and I couldn't figure why---I began to fear an imminent jump; but after burping out three fair-sized airbubbles, larger than its head, the little creature has settled and seems to be doing well. The other one was fine from the start, and the two are together, seeming to be resting.
Thank you very much. I have every hope the little goby will do fine. I'll certainly order from you again.
