Two day delivery
FedEx when to the wrong location, left their note at the wrong location, emailed me that I was not at the location. I contacted them within an hour of their email and they would not, or could not redirect the driver to the right location. Special instructions were on the package. They delivered the package wet the next day . With some very special care the fish are alive. I will care and watch them for several days, with the hope they are okay.
