Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dave Jay" data-source="post: 127200" data-attributes="member: 27677">On Thursday the 1st of March I finally received my order, 4 days in the post again, for years it's always been 3 days no matter where in Australia it's posted from so it's always a worry if they don't arrive on the third day, especially seeing I had DOAs in the last order. I needn't have worried though, everything was fine. The Selenotypus sp.2 were nice and plump little grey slings, not like the phlogius slings in colour at all. There were 6 of them, all plump and healthy. The Phlogius sp.'pq113' were around an inch as expected and a healthy weight but not overly plump. There were 3 of them. The Phlogius strennus was about an inch and looked healthy.The replacements for the doa Phlogius sp. 'stents' were much larger than expected, he really went all out to apologise for the doa and the small ones in the last order! Over 3" for sure! Too big for the tanks I had ready really, after the next moult they'll have to be moved for sure ,but I might move them in the next couple of days before they settle in too much. I have tanks that are a good size for them but I didn't want to rush organising the ventilation and lid security and have an escape or a poorly ventilated enclosure. Unfortunately when I received the package and picked up the camera it was dead flat and turned itself off, it takes an hour or more to recharge so I just unpacked and got what photos I could later that day.</blockquote>
