Description from the creator

▼ LOTS OF INFO ▼ Over the years I've gotten a lot of questions on my new goldfish unboxing videos asking why I acclimate my new fish the way I do. It seems like many people are under the impression that drip acclimation methods (or other similar methods) of acclimating fish is the best way to do it, but that's actually not the case. Sometimes the simplest way actually is best! :) In this video I explain how to properly acclimate your fish and most importantly WHY this is the proper way. It's always important to understand the reason behind why we do things in the aquarium hobby, so I hope this video is helpful!
