I went to USPS and tried to deliver overnight express from Texas to North Carolina. For some reason , I guess because it was a smaller town they did not offer one day overnight. But express service would be about $50 for two day delivery. Im like if there is no overnight why not do 2 day priority instead. So I did and total came out to $14.50 . Well yesterday , fellow reefer texted me and said everything was doing great and thanks for the great deal. I was happy to hear stuff got there safe and sound in 2 day trek. The box included orange monti cap, green monti cap, purple monti cap, green with purple rim monti cap , purple haze monti and some purple tip frogspawn. Im thinking 2 day is fine for most corals other than perhaps acros, anemones, and not sure what other stuff. Anybody have any input on 2 day shipping. Im sure softies, euphyllias, would be fine.
 
I ship a lot of zoas 2 day with no problems. sps on the other hand prob not.
 
I've shipped zoas 3 day to South Carolina. No issues and they opened up very quickly. Guess they were ready for some sunshine!!!
 
I offer 2 day as an option to peeps since next day is around 2x the price. If your packaging is good they usually come in perfectly. I haven't had a loss so far. But I don't give guarantees since it's another day that the zoas have to be away from their destination. $15 more as a guarantee, surprisingly not many people take that option even if their order is $200+.
