    Well, the male wrasse died, as I already said. I got my money back for him already. The female wrasses I haven't seen since the night I put them in. They haven't eaten in at least 5 days. I don't think it looks good for them - if they are even still alive.

    Two of the coral arrived fine, the giant palms (the one I really wanted!) is dead - I'm pretty sure. The water was dark brown and smelled horrible. The coral is kind of brown. :(

    Thanks. It has been. At least the females are tiny, so if they die somewhere in there they should get cleaned up okay and not cause too much of an ammonia spike.

    Thanks!

    Update:

    So my giant palm coral is definitely dead. It looks like it's molding. Really bummed about that one! This guy was huge, and I found the perfect spot for it. I already got a refund for it, and bought another that will be coming Tuesday. Unfortunately this one is a lot smaller. :(

    Still haven't seen the female wrasses. I'm pretty sure they are goners. :( LA told me to contact them at the end of the 14 day guarantee if I still haven't seen them.

    Here's to a better week!
