I have an order coming tomorrow, first live fish order in a while actually. I have my quarantine tank up with the specific gravity to match the shipping water. What is a good temp? I currently have the heater at 75.

75 is fine, as that allows for more dissolved oxygen in the water. After you acclimate, I would slowly bring the temp up to 76-77. Be sure to double check the SG of the bag water. Some online sources don't seem to know what their SG is. :eek:
