bucket will work great. keep any aggressive fish separate to avoid any issues

That's awesome, thanks! I'm probably going to separate by the tanks they are going into for easy acclimation. The tang did not appear to be aggressive in the tank its currently in so hopefully being with the wrasses in a bucket won't be too bad! Its only a 10 min drive so they wouldn't be cooped up for long!

I will see if I can find a third bucket for the tang now that I think about it, then no issues.

I prefer buckets actually. I find the fish stay calmer and as soon as yoi get home just start the drip no transfering.

I have only purchased 1 fish from another reefer, to date they've all come from the lfs, so this is great information. I don't have any empty salt buckets so will stop at Rona to pick up a couple, always good to have around anyway. Thanks everyone!
