i got a shipment with a couple clams coming in the am how do you guys and girls think i should acclimate
 
sounds good im acclimating a lot of different bags with corals too can i put all the corals into one bucket then drip acc ? or should i not mix them? and just run a couple drip lines
 
I temp acclimate, then drip for at least and hour and then re temp acclimate by turning the drip to a heavy flow for at least 5 min. If they come from the same vendor in the same box I put them all in the same bucket to acclimate.
