ACCLIMATION: (very important)-It is important to acclimate the fish due to water parameters being different
FLOAT METHOD-
- Float the sealed bag in the aquarium for 15 minutes. This will allow the temperature in bag to gradually adjust to the aquarium temperature.
- Open the bag and roll down the top edge of bag to create an air pocket. This will allow the bag to float on the water's surface.
- Add a small amount of water (1-2 oz) from the aquarium into bag every 5 minutes for about 20 minutes
- after 25 minutes, carefully net the fish and introduce into the aquarium
- goal here is to gradually introduce the fish to new water parameters with as minimal stress as possible.
