Well I purchased a female peacock around 4 inches from coral oasis. I had her shipped usps express overnight. Guarantee by 12 noon. Didn't happen. Never got delivered and no updates from usps. Called Ben over at coral oasis and he said he packed the peacock in a large styrofoam box with plenty air and water. Next morning on saturday got an update from usps. At least the package was in town. Kept updating the usps website and it was getting closer and closer. At 10am I was waiting outside for the mail lady. She came and said sorry for the delay and wish me the best since she knew it was live fish. Open the package and she is still moving. But water was cold. Did a slow acclimation over 2 hours and transfer her over. She retreat to a cave and stayed there. Decided to give her some uncooked shrimp. She strikes the feeding tongs but very weak hit. I knew she was tired and stressed. But she came back and took it and went back into the cave. She finished the meal by night time and sat in the cave and nothing else. I have a bunch of rubble in there for her but she didn't even cared.
This morning 2 days later I see she moved 2 rubble near the cave. Came home and she moved more. She is finally building where she is going to live. She almost done with one side. So far so good. Scary beginning with the 2 days in shipping but she is settling in.
