GENERAL ACCLIMATISATION
Open the box carefully.
Pick up each bag and check the fish are OK. They will be stressed at this time so they will probably be lying on the bottom of the bag. This is normal, as long as they are the right way up an showing signs of live.
Turn off your qt aquarium lights.
Place the fish bags unopened onto the surface of the aquarium for 5 minutes.
After 15 minutes the fish should be the same temperature as your aquarium.
Check the fish. Take a photograph if they are not alive. (Email photo to us) for our records an if or when possible will will assist you.
Test your Tank water. There should be no Ammonia or Nitrite in the water at all. There should be less than 40 ug/l (ppm) of Nitrate for tropical, coldwater or pond fish, with levels no higher than 25ug/l for marine.
(there may and can be NH4 in Transit Bags)
Open the bags and roll down the sides so that the bags float unaided.
Half fill a cup with aquarium water and add the water to each bag if you feel this is needed-tho its not!
Let the bag float for 5 minutes more.
Release the fish into the aquarium.
dont use our fish bag water.
Leave the lights off for the rest of the day.and cover open tanks to stop jumping out.
When new fish are added to a new aquarium they may be stressed. When fish are stressed their immunity to disease may be low. Help them by adding an aquarium general tonic such as Protozin, or General Tonic. Do this especially for mollies or clown loach who are prone to getting whitespot after stress.
ACCLIMATISING - DRIP FEEDING METHOD
Some species are sensitive to small changes in water chemistry so need your aquarium water adding to their water very slowly. This can be done using the Drip Feeding Method. Turn off your aquarium lights. Float the fish bag in your aquarium for 5 minutes. Take out the bag and place it in a jug. Open the fish bag in the jug and place the jug on the floor or on a chair. Take a piece of 6mm airline and syphon some aquarium water slowly into the bag drop by drop. Use a flow regulator to ensure that the aquarium water is just dripping in slowly. Over a period of 30 minutes the water volume in the bag should have doubled. Now pick up the bag carefully and Pour into a net over a bucket an add fish to tank.
ACCLIMATISING CICHLIDS
Before using the guide above, move as many rocks around as possible so that the attention of your established fish is on find for a new home rather than the new fish. 3 days later you can always move the rocks back to their preferred positions. Please take into account that some cichlids maybe lost is these battles for territory. It is up to you to observe your fish and separate some fish that don't get on to avoid them from dying.when this happens will can not refund.
ACCLIMATISING POND FISH
Pick up each bag and check the fish are OK. They will be stressed at this time so they will probably be lying on the bottom of the bag. This is normal, as long as they are the right way up.
Place the fish bags unopened onto the surface of the pond for 10-30 minutes depending.
After10- 30 minutes the fish should be the same temperature as your pond.
Check the fish. Take a photograph if they are not alive. (Email photo)
Test your water. There should be no Ammonia or Nitrite in the water at all. There should be less than 40 ug/l (ppm) of Nitrate pond fish.
Open the bags and roll down the sides so that the bags float unaided.
Half fill a cup with aquarium water and add the water to each bag.
Let the bag float for 5 minutes more.
Release the fish into the pond.

Email this photo to us before 5pm in NI or 7pm for Ireland the day your fish arrived. We will issue a credit code to replace it the next time you order if we feel its needed or available or right to do so..

These are guaranteed to arrive alive on the time frame by our own drivers only.
Our experience has shown us that guarantees on these fish is not viable. This is largely because the end user has mistreated them by adding them to an aquarium with incompatible species or has not maintained adequate water conditions. We love fish so please research water parameters and fish compatibility before you buy.
In addition test your water to the type of fish you are buying ,we may request this! as in a video form our other.
Please take into account fish will die if not handled or cared for correctly. Please read our acclimatisation guide and care procedures for guide only!
Until redeemed credit codes remain active for the period of 30 days so you have plenty of time to get your replacement.

Therefore sometimes they will be larger than described and sometimes smaller. You will always be paying the market rate of these which continues to be value for money. We will not charge you more when they are slightly larger than described and will not give refunds for fish that are smaller than described. We always try our best to make this as clear as possible.
