I find that is a pretty stressful time too, although I'm not sure if I find that more stressful, or the stress I feel after adding a new tank inhabitant to an existing mix and the whole "they have to re-establish a new pecking order" that lasts anywhere from 3 days to a week or thereabouts (or at least has been in that timeframe for me). That first day in particular where I see the hazing go on I usually have a terrible time watching that and have a whole "OMG OMG I've made a mistake, I have to intervene" mentality going on.
