ACCLIMATION PROCESS:

Do Not Float Shipping Bag in Aquarium!

Do Not Net Fish!

Step 1: Pour entire contents from the shipping bag into a clean fishsafe bucket. (Should be able to hold 3-4 times the amount of water shipped with the fish.)

Step 2: Add an appropriate amount of a stress relieving, ammonia reducing, and slime coat protective product such as Stress Guard by Seachem.

Step 3: Start a siphon using an airline tube from the aquarium they are going into, to the acclimation bucket the fish are in.

Step 4: Set the drip rate to 1-2 drips/second using an inline valve or tie the airline tube in a knot if a valve is not available. (Siphon kit is available as separate listing).

Step 5: After about 1hr increase the drip rate by 1-2 drips/second.

Step 6: When the volume of water in the acclimation bucket gets close to the top, discard 1/4-1/2 the water in the acclimation bucket.

Step 7: Repeat steps 5 & 6, 1 time for every .2 change in PH from the shipping water to the aquarium water. (Shipping water PH = 8.5) If your aquarium water is 7.5 the difference is 1.0 (1.0/.2 =5 hrs of acclimation)

Step 8: On the last time discarding water from the acclimation bucket drain the bucket down to a point where the fish just has enough water to cover its body.

Step 9: Sit the shipping bucket sideways into the aquarium and allow the fish to freely swim into the aquarium.
