First Online Fish Order - Help!

[rcpiv93]

I got an order of fish from Dr. Reef today. Two of the wrasses are extremely stressed. The exquisite wrasse was upside down in the bag.

Other than following standard acclimation processes (as outlined by Dr. Reef) is there anything I can do to help them recover? Or do I just keep the lights out and check on them in the morning?

Have you reached out to Dr Reef yet?

Beyond what you've already done, I'd say reducing the lights and leaving them be to settle in may be your best course of action.

I have. I was just getting as many opinions as possible. I will leave them be and update everyone as time passes.

I’m also going to g to do a complete review of my experience with Dr. Reef when all is said and done. So keep an eye out for that!

Hopefully everything turns out good! Shipping wrasses (and many other fish) can be stressful.
