    I have Wednesday off work, but if you hold on to it until Sunday then I'm okay

    @Loren Nicholls@Loren Nicholls - we are good on lot quantities for the emerald crabs and astrea snails - but thanks for offering. It would be best if you could possibly make arrangements to pick up from Mark - Cyfan (if it works for him). I could possibly hold the hermit crabs and emerald crabs, but I would NOT be able to hold the fish.

    Let me know your decision by noon tomorrow - so I can make changes to the order if necessary.

    @Loren Nicholls@Loren Nicholls - I'm not clear on what you are thinking at the moment. I received your text asking about the blue tang? You have also asked about the angel fish? Are you able to make a pickup at my house on Thursday or at Mark's (Huxley) on Thursday???? Since I have already placed the order, I'd prefer not to remove items from the order, only add something.

    Do you think the 100 lot of blue crabs and 6 emerald crabs would be ok in my 20 gal frag tank?

    I'm picking it up from Mark, and I'm only thinking about adding another fish if they get it in stock.

    Final updates have been made to the order. Attached is the final tally for everyone. Payment - cash or paypal. If cash, no coins or ones - and I've rounded up to the nearest $5 increment (was very close for everyone).

    Order will ship on Wednesday evening - arrive at my house on Thursday morning. Pickup in the afternoon - 1pm or after. Let me know what time you think you will stop over. I'll also post when the shipment arrives.

    Before I forget, Grand Ave is closed between I35 exit and 50th street. So you will need take the Mills Civic Parkway exit instead of Grand Ave exit. Go east to 50th street and then south to Grand avenue. Then you can turn east.

    Glad to hear it! I hope everyone else's are doing well also.

    I've had a hair algae in my cube tank. So I added a bunch of hermit crabs and snails into that tank. They should have a feast!

    Glad everything worked out for everyone.
