Amanda, how did you acclimate them. I've read you have to drip acclimate them. That's what we did for, like, 2 hours.

I'm just going to keep doing tests and wc's until they're all set.

And oh yeah, I was picky. I made them get me the ones with the biggest bellies!

Re: Woke up with dead oto :-(

Well, as this was a while ago I got them... I let them sit in the bag for a while, then poked a few little holes so some tank water could get in... then opened the holes for more water, then finally let them out. Whole thing was about an hour.

And they are alive and well!

Re: Woke up with dead oto :-(

it is.. there seems to be all kinds of ways to do it, but however you do it, slowly adding tank water to their water is the way to go. we use a turkey baster to transfer water, while floating the bag/cup in the tank.
