Acclimation Recommendation

Carefully unpack your new African Cichlids. In winter months clean off insulation from packaging and float bags for 20 minutes to allow fish to acclimate to your tanks temperature. If any of your fish appear to be struggling to breath or laying on their side, immediately place fish in a smaller isolation tank with an extra air stone. (If iso tank is not available you can use a Tupperware temporarily to nurse fish back to health) Extra oxygen works wonders in a compact setting for fish struggling from shipping stress!
