I put a new Copperband butterfly and Bartlett Anthia in my 210 gallon yesterday. I currently have 2 other Bartletts (a third just died) a Vlamingi tang, Kole tand, 3 Hippo tang, Maroon/Gold clown, 2 Damsels and purple Goby (?) I think - can't remember.
I dripped for 2 hours, etc.. I have yet to see the Anthia today - and the Copperband is sucking wind in the corner. I know he is still scared - but he won't eat (again, it has been 24 hours) and I am not sure what to do.
Do you think my Anthia is dead? Should I go through any extra measures for the Copperband?
Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Wyny

If your water quality is excellent acclimation is not necessary. Just float bag 15 minutes and add fish.

The place I buy from keeps their salinity very low due to Ick outbreaks. As far as I can tell my water is fine - as I check everything and monitor levels all the time.
Dunno!
