    I emailed the company. His gills or anything aren't moving...there are no signs of life.

    Yeah, I've never heard of clowns "acting" dead. He was in a small bag with water, wrapped in paper towels with a heating pack. Felt kind of cold to me in there...but he still arrived earlier than in most other places. Took him out, and yeah, appeared dead.

    Ugggh I'm soooo sad. I'm never ordering online again. Their policy is a replacement fish, but I don't even want one. I'd rather be out 75 bucks.
