The Achilles stayed on the acclimation box all day and night until the lights went out. He barely wondered off to grab some floating food at feeding time!

I'm hoping the 8ft long 3ft wide tank is enough room for them both!

will this acclimation tanks help for drip acclimating or only to acclimate for the tank inhabitants?

These acclimation boxes are only for introduction into the tank. They have slits all around for water flow. I have a smaller size, they are great.

One of our customers @11f150 with the Fallout Shelter in use. Acclimation boxes are worth their weight in gold!

Really until aggression stops but hopefully no more than a few days. As of this morning the Achilles is back at the box again!

I may be moving to the next step and adding the tank divider.

The aggression never ceased so I deployed the tank divider which has been in pace for two days. The plan is to remove it on Thursday. :)
