Recommended acclimation procedure for RBTA

[malate]

Hi, just wan to get your thoughts on best way to acclimate a new RBTA (handling, lights on/off, etc.), that will host a pair of Maroon Clowns.


Thanks in advance!

Same as other corals actually. lights off and slowly acclimate to full light. Acclimate water using drip method if you like. Acclimate for temperature.

IF you do stress it out ... you might be rewarded by the RBTA splitting!
