Need help with acclimation procedure
I just picked up a large pink birdsnest from a local tank breakdown. My problem(one of many) is that I didn't have a bag large enough to transport it home, so I placed it directly in a cooler. Obviously the cooler won't fit in the tank. What should I do?

Put the cooler in a larger container (rubbermaid bin or whatever). Drip your tank water into the cooler, let it overflow into the bin.

I dunno about "your" assessor - but mine is dong just fine  Sometimes the way the light hits him just right, he's got bright orange and blue around his fins....
Gee I like that fish
Speaking of fish - and not meaning to hijack your thread - those ********** ********** of Tom's are beginning to grow on me - I may not want to part with them

I would have a hard time parting with them as well.  So are you going to be getting anymore of the Assessors?

Heh there's even a 'part picture' on this forum I guess that thread kind of fizzed out once people began to figure out what the big deal was
I don't want to tread into commercial territory concerning the assessors, as it is I'm probably walking a fine line so I want to be sure to respect the rules such as they are
