How Close

[fernalfer]

Ready to add my fish from QT to Main Display. How close does the salinity and tem have to be?

QT 79 Main tank is 78 1 degree difference

QT Salinity 1.025 Main Display 1.026

Or do i need to drip acclimate still?

i don't drip acclimate, ever.

when new arrivals are coming in i match qt salinity to what's in the bag, then float to temp acclimate and cut them loose.

i then raise the salinity of my qt over a few days until it is in line with my dt.

for 1.025 to 1.026 i wouldn't be concerned. that's minimal.

I mean your equipment could be off if it's that close. But a .001 should not make a difference

 

[fernalfer]

how about a 1 degree temp difference.
