coral during shipping

[acanlover]

Does anyone know the maximum amount of time corals can spend in shipping?
I sent Trustinno1 2 acans and a zoanthid frag this time and the past 2 times or so i sent it 2nd day delivery with an ice pack since the weather is like 105 degrees there and everything was always fine. This time is been 3 days going on the forth and its still not delivered. I did put a double sized ice pack since it was the only one I had left. Does anyone think they will live?

Hello,
It really depends on the type of coral and the environment it is subjected to. If the coral gets to 100+F there's not much hope no matter what the time frame is.
