Hey guys, I have prepared a 10g for the pygmy cories to move. The tanks are at the same temps and been maintained steadily. Tank stats are perfect but the water is fresh decholrinated (filter will be transferred with teh pygmies). I was going to bag the 6 adults up and fry, add most of the 5g water to the 10g tank and then reacclimatise the fish with the overall 10g water so no shocks. Am I overthinking this or is this good? Thanks peeps x
 
I'm no expert but I think that sounds fine. If you think about the trauma they go through when brought home from the LFS and survive I think what you're saying sounds great.
 
sounds fine, isn't really neccesarry providing your Temperature, nitrate, KH, GH, nitrite, ammonia/ammonium and PH levels are the same, but I would do it anyway.
