I got 75 lbs of fiji lr free yesterday!
I ordered 100 lbs of fiji lr from my lfs. This lfs does not carry saltwater livestock so any sw livestock ordered must be picked up upon delivery. That's the reason I get such a good deal through these guys.
Long story short...the lr comes into the lfs in a wet cardboard box, not the styrofoam cooler as expected. The manager of the LFS complains to the supplier saying that the lr was not shipped properly and ends up getting a credit for it. The credit was then passed on to me.
Question: The lr was damp due to the wet cardboard box but not overly moist. I know I'm going to have some die-off but was wondering if you expect anything will survive on it. It was probably out of the water for a couple of hours and is curing as we speak. Another customer (very experienced in sw fishkeeping) that was there at the time said I would probably be suprised at the recovery of the "critters" on the rock.
