it seems the industry doesn't put mush stock in the research. Even back in the day when live rock was shipped in wet paper, corals were shipped in water. Now, live rock suppliers recommend shipping in water and corals still come in water from wholesalers. I can't speak to the science though.I was actually doing a little research on corals and how they used to ship them. I read in a couple of articles that scientists prefer their corals to be shipped out of water in damp conditions. They claim the water goes fowl first and starts to affect the corals. Corals can survive out of water for awhile as long as they stay damp and temps are steady. Anyone else have any info or facts on this?
