Once my tank cycles, the first fish I plan on putting in it is a coral catshark, I know these fish (or any other for that fact) can not handle stress well at all. I've read many stories about these fish dying in transition from fish store to someone's tank. I was wondering what the best way to acclimate one of these would be? Bag float, drip method, something else? The nearest fish store that has these is a 1 hour car ride away, I would assume that's not a problem since online fish stores ship these and are often in transit for at least 12 hours. Thank you in advance.
