EMERGENCY - fish package dropped at Memphis hub - need someone who can help, please!

[jmccown]

I ordered a 12" clown trigger from a supplier and the box was dropped at the Memphis hub this mornign and damaged to where it cannot be forwarded to me in Kentucky. To keep this fish from perishing this is the only option at this point. Someone must pick this fish up from the hub because it is sitting there in a bag. There are no outgoing flights this late in the day. This is a truly special fish and I don't want it to die. If someone can pick this fish up they can either have it for free or volunteer to hold it for me till I can make the 8-9 hour trip to pick it up. PLEASE HELP ME KEEP THIS FISH FROM PERISHING. MESSAGE ME IMMEDIATELY IF YOU CAN HELP OUT ON THIS.

I APPRECIATE ANYONE'S HELP ON THIS.

Your trigger is safe and happy. Don't worry about him. Michael at NYAquatics called me and had me pick up the fish at FedEx. He is currently in a 120 by himself. I will ship him out to you next week. Let me get all the supplies here from Michael and then I will get with you about when to ship next week.
Here are a couple of pictures.

Excellent. Can't thank you enough Richard. I'll call you in a little bit. It is good to know we can reach out to fellow hobbyists in times of crisis like this. Props to you for going out of your way on this. Even cooler that you are a member here on RC.

Got a chance to see Mr Trigger today up close and in person. AWESOME FISH!!! He's gonna need a big tank wherever he's going. And given the size of that top fin you're gonna need a kevlar bag to ship him in or he may be making another emergency stop before he get to his final destination. LOL
Three cheers for Richard the Fish Saver!!!!!

Wow very cool of you to post of video of my trigger. I can't wait to get the big fella. I do have a big tank for him. It is an 11 foot starphire glass tank.

Great Job, glad Michael knew who to contact, ...BTW... I thought that only Caribbean Queen triggers liked calypso music!

 

[KingwoodMarcia]

That was great thing to do. Glad to see people still care for other folks in trouble. GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!

I'm not exactly sure how it happened but after I posted this here I had several members of this forum that live near Memphis to call me and recommend Memfish, namely Psilentchild here on RC. He said he knew RIchard, so wasn't sure if he called RIchard or if Michael got in touch with him or what but I'm just glad it worked out.
