Default Moving fish to new tank

The tupperware is an excellent idea.

Get as much water from the old tank to the new one, to help cycle it right
away too.

I moved my fish by putting them in a tupperware-type container with water
from their tank, and then added water from the other tank a bit at a time

to
set the temp and it worked. I have tried using sandwich bags, too. Use
Ziploc, though since cheaper brands don't do the trick.

As for temp, I don't use heaters. My house is fairly warm as it is and

the
tanks stay around 74/5 degrees anyways. I just got some Angel's however,

so
I'll probably have to dig the heaters out now. LOL.

Hope this helps.

Tammy
