Description
Drip acclimation is a commonly used method for acclimating a wide range of marine critters to a new environment. The duration and drip rate required for acclimation can vary depending on the species of animal and the difference in water parameters between the old and new environment. Here are some general guidelines for drip acclimation for different marine critters: Fish Drip acclimation for fish usually takes around 30 minutes to an hour. The drip rate should be adjusted so that it is not too fast, as this can stress the fish. During the acclimation process, the water temperature should be monitored closely, as sudden changes in temperature can be harmful to fish. Invertebrates Invertebrates such as shrimp, crabs, and snails should be drip acclimated for at least an hour or longer, depending on the species. The drip rate should be slower than for fish, usually around 1-2 drops per second. Invertebrates are sensitive to changes in water chemistry, so the water parameters should be monitored closely during the acclimation process. Corals Drip acclimation for corals can take several hours, or even up to a day in some cases. The drip rate should be very slow, usually around 1 drop per second or less. Corals are very sensitive to changes in water chemistry, so it is important to monitor the water parameters closely during the acclimation process. Anemones Anemones should be drip acclimated for at least 2-3 hours, or longer if possible. The drip rate should be slow, usually around 1 drop per second or less. Anemones are sensitive to changes in water chemistry and temperature, so these should be monitored closely during the acclimation process.
