Good luck!
Avast!..I have a shipping notice from FedEx stating that a package is enroute for delivery late today from Baltimore...Two Mar-Mari Heckel's, long awaited, will now take on Mother Nature in North America..Yesterday was great; warm, raining, which was melting down our record setting snowpack..then, it turned to snow, and now we're in the middle of an unexpected winter storm.. I-29 is a 'no travel advisory' from the town where the FedEx truck leaves from for the entire 60 miles to my house...many inches of new snow, and it's still falling..My last shipment from Kenny was in the same weather; the fish were doomed to sit in an unheated wharehouse until the next day, but I fired up the Hemi, locked her in, and went for it.They're doing fine swimming in their own QT tank...As for the Heckel's. will they make it?? Can FedEx pull it off?..I've my doubts, but I'll keep you posted......

Good luck!
Sure hope they make it Gary. Let us know later today if you get them. Fingers crossed for you and the fish!

Oh boy Gary, cancelled school is not a good sign. Hope you get these guys home safe and sound.
Ugh!...FedEx ain't movin', so the Rumble Bee's warmin' up, locked in..and I'll hopefully be back in a half dozen hours.....

4 wheel driving for you with chains...ugh Take care
Be careful out there Gary and best wishes for your safe return with discus in good shape!

I'm bummed, couldn't make it; total whiteout, no track in the snow..Got stuck a half a dozen times, and fedex had a two hour time constraint on picking them up..looks like they're in a cold wharehouse until tomorrow.....

That's too bad.... can you call them to see if they could at least put them in a heated office? I thought this stuff only happens to me!
Gary, be careful please, it's only fish!!!!!!! 2 more on my conto doesn't make a difference anymore. Now tell me again, why am I in this business?????

Gary, do you know anybody in Watertown SD with Discus, let them pick them up, they can have them for free. I ship you new ones later. This way they at least have a change in that weather,

Gary and Hans, hope they make it but doesn't seem likely.
Hans, Nope, It's hardly even 'guppy-land' around there..I just checked, the roads still not plowed, but I'll keep checking every hour or so..I hate to see it end like this....
