The above recommendations are very important and should not be ignored. Following the guidelines will help ensure your new acquisition the best chance for a stress free introduction and a strong start with its new family.
When receiving these picassos that have endured a long transport (overnight service) please keep the following in mind:
- They have been in the pitch black dark for at least 12 hours and probably closer to 18 hours. When you open the box, PLEASE do so under dim lighting so they can acclimate to the light. When acclimating them, turn off the tank lights for a few hours. Removing them in bright light or holding the bag up to a light to look inside is very stressful.
- Never acclimate while they are in the Kordon Breathing bags. Doing so can suffocate them. Remove the fish to another bag or container during acclimation.
- Quarantine! My fish are disease free but quarantining is always a great idea. It will allow your fish to acclimate to its new home and foods. You will also be better able to determine if it is eating well.
- The fish that I send are around 1-1.25" which is small. If you do not have the proper set up for a small fish, please refrain from buying them. They can slip through openings larger fish can't or can get blown around by strong powerheads/pumps found in many reef tanks.
