depends on what im putting in my tank

fish i float until temp is the same, dump them into a net to strain the water out and throw em in the tank

same general idea with corals

for more sensitive stuff like clams and starfish and stuff i just syphon into a container with an airline hose with a valve on it till the bucket is full (approx 2g container)

+1 on simple method. No losses to date. Even did a move where temp fluctuated retardedly and still no losses. Pure luck I suppose....
