ok, at 12:00 my time (3.4 hours) we transfer the fish and head to the lfs for some live rock, live sand, test kits, power heads, refractometers, salt water, and order fish for the coming week, hopefully if they still have the bosemani rainbows ill get those too

no piccys as only the water has claered up.

In response to a previous post in this thread, yes you should re-acclimatise your fish when adding them to the 55g. I hope you didn't forget to use de-chlorinator when you added the water to the 55g and that the temperature is suitable (24-26C).

dont worry, got ziplocs ready when we transfer, parents got to do some errands but tey are back now and when they finish eating we change the water and head for the lfss
