Fish Acclimization Time

[BlueWorldAquatic]

Best success rate is about an hour, where the water is at least doubled.

We find an hour is optinum for survival, unless the fish are in bags longer than 48hours, then we go 2 hours.

Acclimating fish is probably a good thing, but I have never done it (other then matching the temp).

I float the bag for half an hour, remove the fish from the bag and place it in the quarantine tank....I have not yet lost a fish because of this and my achilles, copperband, regal angel and 2 potters angels have all had the same treatment.....
