May I ask why you prefer the pyramid to other butterflies? To me they look less colorful, but thats just my opinion. I know many people like it though.

walked the sand with the crustaceans
Pyramids do often like to munch on xenia polyps but typically leave other corals alone.
They're also quite easy to get eating prepared food, unlike some butterflies.

I have good success with my LA orders for fish. 3 different occasions, the only issue I had was with the reef cleaner pack. I did have on video the UPS driver dropping my box on the porch.
Dwarf Lionfish
Bristletooth Tang
Valentini Puffer
Blue spot puffer
Aptasia eating filefish
ORA Clownfish
Various inexpensive freeshwater fish
I have not had much luck on the coral site, but luckily my lfs is excellent for that.
I have had no luck with saltwaterfish.com. They refunded, but the packaging was poor. Mostly wrapped in Chinese newspapers. I will no longer use them.

Well LA dropped the ball even before delivery. I specifically left a note in my order that said "if you can't send all three that I've ordered, cancel the order. I just got a email telling me they only sent one. The email was time stamped 10 mins. before their closing time. They didn't call or email me before shipping. That is bad customer service. I may refuse order, haven't decided yet. This was my first order with them.

His was 3 of the same fish so either way 33% of his order was shipped, I am worried about the same thing, I have considered getting 10-15 female pink square anthias, anything less will likely equal a lot of dead fish so I am worried about the entire order shipping.

It's all good. They will email me when the get 2 more in stock and shipping will be free. I just hate going through the QT process longer than I have to. If I get the other 2 before this current one is finished in QT, I'll need to start the clock back to day one for 30 more days. I have a feeling the one I have now won't need medication. To be honest, I don't know how any fish survives the trip from the ocean to are homes. Just the delivery day in the UPS truck with all the quick starts and stops with sometimes 100 deliveries is enough. I was thinking originally of not receiving the delivery. Then I thought..... What happens to the Fish? I couldn't just let it die.
Hope they get more for you soon.
I started with a trio from Divers Den, but I lost one shortly after it arrived - it didn't seem healthy to start with. You may want to consider this - I added a black zoster to replace the pyramid, and it is a cool mix. Unsurprisingly, they look like they belong together, and the little splash of yellow on the black zoster sort of makes it seem like he/she is the rebel in the family.
