Mail order coral question

[Kens Bees]

I had a bunch of corals shipped to me yesterday with the intention I'd dip and install tonight when I got home. They just arrived at work, which is about six hours earlier than I expected.

Does anyone see an issue waiting another 8 hours before getting them dipped and acclimated? They're individually bagged, in an insulated box with a towel and small heat pack.

TIA

Should b fine . What did u get

I would keep them warm. Make sure to acclimate them. Sooner to get them in tank the better.

Got a few cyphastrea, a couple favia, a goni and a couple zoas for good measure. Tried a Lepto too.

Took a long lunch and took care of them. Dripped, dipped, rinsed and on a rack in a dark corner of the tank.
