    Yup, the Doc is right. Thats just how it happened. You'd think with these times our suppliers would fight for business.

    I mean, a well known onlineFS that sells in bulk was offering FREE shipping. I ordered rock, equipment, filters & bulbs. I had everything at my door in less that 5 days!! Dunno, maybe I just haven't been keeping track.

    Anyway, the only good part was, during our email exchanges, when I mentioned "3reef Member", they left a message on my cell and want to talk to me personally. Thanks guys, I got a good idea on what I gotta do. :angry:

    I hate UPS and Fedex.
    If I'm not home and they don't leave it on the step. I have to wait another day or drive 10 miles to pick up the packages. You can only pick up between 8-8:30 PM and it takes forever for them to call all the names then go look for your package. I've been there 2 hours before. Happens to me all the time.
    USPS If they don't leave it I go in and it's there waiting for me.
