A gallon per inch of fish huh, wasn't that a 3 inch Regal Tang and then lets add two clows and a couple of seahorses and some starfish now lets watch the tank inhabitants die. Americans are not so smart

That was beautiful. Truly inspirational. Float the bags for 5 or 10 minutes. That oughta do it. Throw in a bunch of water conditioner to bind all the oxygen right before you introduce the fish, too. And - most importantly - don't forget the plastic _decorations_ <edited to avoid associations with xenophobia -- just tacky, is all>.

I wonder how many "nemos" that little segment killed?

I found it interesting that "acclimating the fish to your water" meant floating the bag for 5 mins and then dumping it in. Actually the woman made quite a few "off the wall" comments that made me shake my head.

A little light reading for anyone that missed it
