    Default Drip Acclimate

    Got a new CBB home and drip acclimating. I went to check the SG and it is 1.017. The SG in my tank is 1.026. How long should he be dripping? Please don't tell me 9 hours

    Default RE: Drip Acclimate

    As long as it takes to match your tank salinity, usually a couple of hours at least. With copper bands, the slower the better.
