I hear ya, I wouldn't mind avoiding shipping costs but you have to look past that when you're getting your dream pbass! I'm going with bag acclimation technique, adding 1/2 cup water every 5 minutes until bag is full, drain half off and re-fill again. The drip method I thought might be a little bit overkill. Total acclimation time will probably be an hour and a half or more....

temp is around 84F, 2 ac 110's and an airstone on the tank, once i get some new suction cups i'll go back to my powerhead with two filters...

They're beautiful, the Pinima has so many spots on it right now and the Azul looks like a million dollars! It's almost surreal having these fish because I've been looking at them on here so long and now I have two of my very own!

I know just what you mean,I still remember how excited I was when I received my fish in the mail for the first time.
