I think its a case by case situation. See how it looks when it arrives. is its mouth gaping? how warm/cold is the water its in what kind of lights do you have, what are your params....etc. etc.
When got mine the water was very cold and it looked awful therefore i temp acclimated mine for about 1-2 hours or so then dripped it for anther hour or so then placed it in my sump with no flow at all under very weak PC lighting. gave it about 5 hours in there let it inflate then moved it at nightitme into my main tank with half flow and no lights over night then in the mornign everything back to normal.
