After quite a bit of consideration and decisions bouncing back and forth, we decided to swap tanks between the two Angels and ten Neonies. Nibbler and Stripes have been doing OK on their own in the old tank for 10 days now – they enjoyed a daily 50% water change and gravel cleaning to keep the ammonia and nitrite levels down – but we couldn’t keep them there long term.
We noticed as well that Nibbler and Stripes have grown noticeably in the 6 weeks we’ve had them. Neither had any difficulties on their move back to the two feet tank, and within minutes of the transfer were happily swimming about and enjoying dinner with the rest of their old mates.
The ten Neonies were a different matter though – it took them a while to get used to the new home which they now have to their own. Several of them took to having their dinner of bloodworms, but the rest seemed a little nervous. We’re hopeful they’ll settle in quickly into their new home.
