Hi there - we are finally finished setting up our 50G. It cycled, the water is changed and it is ready to go. We are moving our clown goby, peppermint shrimp and pistol shrimp to the new tank.
My question is do I have to do the same acclimation procedure for moving them? SG, PH, Temp and all other levels are the same in both tanks...can I speed the process up a little???

Thanks so much!
 
I would do the same method that you have been doing. When I switched my fish from my 24 to my 125 I did the drip method and everything worked out great.

You have to remember that whenever you move a fish it always stresses them out no matter what so you want it to make it as easy and the best you can for them so they dont get stressed and get a disease.

Also make the transfer with the lights off.That seems to keep them from stressing as much.
