What the title says, how long can they survive shipping

I've done USPS priority shipping without a problem. A lot depends on how well they are packaged, temperatures, etc.

How long was that shipping?

 

[khowst]

priority is the standard 3 day shipping (or less), not overnight.

3 days max at proper temp

I'm no expert, but by mistake left one head out of water for 24+ hours and it reopened in the tank 3 days after being exposed. So I'd say they can last pretty long shipping, 3 days as stated above is believable.

Agreed.

I ordered zoas from Hawaii, 3 boxes came, one leaked completely dry... All zoas made it.

Zoas are on the way, lets hope everything is fine when they arrive.

 

[DrBegalke]

Yes, it was 3 day shipping.

 

[symon_say]

They are all fine and completely open, i'll post pics and some question later.

Thanks to all.

I've had zoas stuck in. Package for the weekend. FedEx.
Most made it. Not all of them them though.

Sometimes we receive Zoas, Rics and Acans from USA with 3 days and no problem!.

+1 on packing and temperature.
