Correct. I'm glad you gave me that option, most think that since something is eating something else, it must have killed it. BTW, I'm sure that blue neon cost you a pretty penny, did you buy it online or from a LFS? If online, did they pack them both together?

No, I got them at the LFS and for only (only??) $6 each. They had a short comfortable ride home and I think they even watched a movie (LOL I have DVd player in truck). the other one is ok and checking out my rocks. I realize that I didn't see this one really at all after initially acclimating them (45 min with 4 water additions prior to insertion). maybe he was just barely hanging on and had a heart attack when he saw his new kingdom!!LOL again. I'll Talk to LFS today. Thanks Gresham.

Oh, oh, can I post my pic of a blue neon hermit Craig?

Ben, yes do go back and see whats up, thats way to quick of a transport for a hermit to die. In blue neons defense, they are a semi delicate critter when it comes to shipping, BUT NOT THAT delicate.
