i lost so much stuff doing it the slow and steady way. I finally said f-it.

Now its toss bag in, when i remeber that i have something floating i go back open it toss in some "prime" plus some tank water. wait a few and chuck him in.


When doing some research on why i was losing so much crap right from the store, Apparently the theory goes, bag water is dirty once the bag is open it gets toxic fast. thus the prime.

most store water is 0.21 from what i have seen, My water is 0.24 thus the short transitional phase.

Fish have been going in the tank on my last few purchases better then any i have had in the past they seem to skip that getting comfy stage and seem to have some pep in their step.
