Follow these steps to minimize stress and ensure a smooth transition for your new fish!

1. Float the Bag: Place the sealed bag containing the new fish in the tank. This equalizes the temperature between bag and tank water.

2. Open and Add Tank Water Gradually: After about 5 minutes, open the bag and add a small amount of aquarium water into it every 5 minutes for 15–30 minutes. This helps the fish acclimate to the tank’s water chemistry.

3. Wait 15–30 Minutes: Let the fish adjust to the water temperature and chemistry gradually in the bag.

4. Release Fish: Gently release the fish into the tank without pouring the original bag water in.
