1) Kyesap is a new seller on EBay. She had very good communication and fast shipping with great packaging. Highly recommend!
2) Manzanita Driftwood has been around 10 years. Terrible customer service, poor to no communication, and horrible packaging. Wouldn’t recommend. Dead fish

Blame the couriers that take 4 days to deliver the fish.
In future, ask the pet shop to use bigger bags, a bit of Ammogon/ Zeolite and lots of oxygen to compensate for the fact the courier companies are taking 4 days to deliver the fish.
If the fish are fasted for 24 hours before bagging, put into bigger bags with Ammogon to adsorb any ammonia, and given oxygen, they should last 4 days.

Poor fish! I can understand people want to add to their aquarium, especially during the pandemic. But we all know that postal/courier companies are all overworked and under staffed. I think a bit of patience (the ultimate buzz word in the fish world) and visit your LFS once it is safe to do so.

ok.
I'd still get wood form them though.
yes
yes. When I start breeding I plan to do that.
And... another successful shipping! These came from Qunn’s Fins . I’ve bought beautiful guppies from him before. Always sends an extra fish. These are neon tetras. All alive and well. Still floating in bag here.
@emeraldking might know
They may have pulled the wrong fish. I ordered a calico telescope eye goldfish once and got a calico ryunkin goldfish. They gave me the fish free since they screwed up.
Yep, that´s not a red tail...
They´ve probably scooped the wrong one out. I do know that a number of variatus platies can color up late but with this one it won´t happen.
Do you know what kind of platy this is then?
It does come close to a hawaii variatus platy but not typical. He could be mixed.
