I recently purchased two 2" demasoni cichlids and a 2" and 1.5" mixed Mbuna. I put them in my quarantine tank where I keep two small chinese algae eaters. All of the cichlids in quarantine are really shy and huddle up in the corner and freak out if I turn on the light. I realize its stressfull to be transported in a bag and then dumped into a tank, but I am worried as they will not survive in my main tank acting the way they are. Do you guys think there is anything I can do to calm them down?
The water parameters were all good with exception to nitrites, they were slightly higher, but acceptable. I did a 40% water change to get them back down.
