Hey guys, first time importing stingrays from overseas..scary but exciting. Ive been searching for a while to find something very nice.

Im expecting them to be in my hands end of march. They will fly from vietnam to thailand next week. Quarantine for 5 days then ship from thailand to vancouver where they will receive a water change and re oxygenate. Short flight from vancouver to calgary where I will pick them up and haveba 3 hour drive home.

Whats the best way to acclimate these guys? Ive always done drip method but being in bags so long I have a feeling that is not a great idea. But I would love to hear your experiences or opinions.

Thanks!
