altolamprologus Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Doesn't hurt to say it again Lol sounds good Yep So, any pics of the angler in the tank? Still acclimating(very very slowly) because I'm afraid of killing him. He'll be in there soon Link to comment
yoshii Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Still acclimating(very very slowly) because I'm afraid of killing him. He'll be in there soon I thought you might be doing that Just make sure he doesn't get too cold Link to comment
altolamprologus Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 I thought you might be doing that Just make sure he doesn't get too cold I acclimate inside the tank. Float bag 20 minutes then add water a few mL at a time every 5 minutes. Takes a long time but I don't want to take my chances with him. Link to comment
Euphyllia Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Drip acclimate. All you need is a water flow regulation valve and a siphon hose. Link to comment
Squared Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 yeah but then it will be in a bucket and it will get cold Link to comment
Euphyllia Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 yeah but then it will be in a bucket and it will get cold Not if the drip is set at a fast rate. Link to comment
altolamprologus Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Not if the drip is set at a fast rate. I know how to drip and I have the tubing and everything, I just choose not to. I know I'm weird, but this is the way I've been doing it for 10 years and it works for me. Link to comment

There are a lot of pods, but I'm not sure he'll eat them. I'm getting some live shrimp tomorrow though. He is so fricking cute! Love it what's his name!? Ohh need a video soon! He doesn't have a name. It's been a curse for me to name fish since I was a kid so I don't do it anymore. I'll get a vid of him eating soon Link to comment
