i have a gsp coming in the mail from CT should be here within the day but im beyond worried for the lil guy *gulp* think the box will repel the heat to a degree?

Oh wow, I hope for your sake and the mailmans that it does because if that thing dies and is in the heat for that long it is going to be ripe

Not much. Hopefully they packed it with something to keep cool or as something to keep cool.

Are Green Spotted Puffers edible? Someone may be sending you a slow cooked fish dinner. (just kidding! I know, that was bad).

I actually just got 6 Panda Corys delivered to me a couple days ago and they were all fine (came from Georgia to VA). I got them from Severum Mama though and she's the master of packing.

-_- no get out! lol jk cali isnt bad 2 years ago i went in the summer i was in LA heats not bad 90° its the humidity that kills us east coasters
 
haha yes it must, i have been to the east coast in teh spring (north carolina) and it was humid there one day, and i had to dress up in all-black :(

It's not humid here, but due to the fact it's not humid, that means its easier to get wildfires...

There are lots of people that live with these temps year round, and without AC. Panama, in the Dry Arch comes to mind, as one place. I'm actually enjoying it. I live for those 5 to 10 very hot days we get in a normal summer. I keep my AC at around 76 to 78; I want it to still feel like summer.
