hi guys! i was just wondering the other day, when it comes to adding new fish or inverts to my aquarium, do i put them in with or without the water they come with? i would have thought this could change the sg in small tanks such as my 7 gallon? what is the best way to add live stock? thanks in adance summat fishy :)
 
The water from the bag that the LFS gave you is generally regarded as a potential source of disease so people try to avoid that water and net out the animal from the bag.

A more detailed description might be here:

AFAIK there are a few animals that can't stay on air even for a few seconds (you have to swap them immediately within a second or so) but those normally don't live in nanos.
