I have a purple bonsai acro. When I first got it, I almost killed it. I dipped it in ro/di water. I put it on the sand bed and left it alone. It has been 4 months and it has recovered and is growing. I want to move it on a rock so it can have a permanent home. I am scared to move it and it dies. It is happy and growing. Any advice other than leave it where it is.

Try slowly moving it to where you want it

I say gradually move it in the tanke to lessen the chance of shock

I think you should gradually move it in the tank so it doesn't get stressed
 
I moved it up half way. It has lost a little color. It is light purple instead of dark purple. It is alive.
