I had the same problem as the last review. Specimens were fully deteriorated and was basically a vial of opaque fluid.

Poorly preserved - We order scypha (grantia) each year from Wards. This year the preserved specimens were worthless. The holding fluid was silty and smelled of seafood and the specimens were broken and soft. I called for a replacement and that sample wasn't any better. I don't know if Wards has switched suppliers but until their product quality improves I will order elsewhere.
