Acclimating fish

[Kevotron]

Trying to acclimate new fish to the current residents, how long should I leave the new fish in a floating basket for ??

What kind of fish, what is in the tank already and why is the poor fish in a basket?

[Kevotron]

New fish is a yellow tang
current residents: Salfin and a Scopas
they (esp the Scopas) kept chasing the poor yellow around hence i moved him to a basket hoping those 2 bullies will settle down and accept him.

I'd say just hope for the best, the basket will surely not help with the stress.

Agreed. Give them 24 hours together, usually a YT can handle itself pretty good.

Atleast he is eating like a pig in the basket instead of being pinned to the corner of the tank haha
lets hope for the best...
anybody in need of a Scopas ? lol
