setup question.

[ezzzzz]

so fed ex is delivering my Fi sim and nexus 5x tomorrow. my question is...shud I put in my Verizon sim, set my phone up then drop in the Fi sim? or the opposite way? set up phone without sim over wifi? does it even matter?

SIM card during setup doesn't matter.

You can set up your 5X over wifi and be good.

activation will not work without the FI SIM in the phone. That is true for any carrier. Be connected on WIFI.

When you put the SIM in (and may need reboot), it will immediately connect to tmobile LTE. When I saw this I assumed that activation happened correctly but it didn't. It only happens when the FI app completes its thing and informs you that it is activated so you MUST be on wifi.
