We are returning home from vacation tomorrow and my wife found a couple of (allegedly) rare frags that she had to have. The store packed them up with extra O2 and in a shipping container that they get items in cross country. By the time I get home they will have been boxed for 24 hours, much like an internet overnight purchase.
I know to float them for a while to get them to the tank temp slowly. I am confused about putting them in after acclimation with my lights still on. Would it be better to keep them in the dark since they will have had 24 hours of darkness or go ahead and put them in the tank, my RB LED will be winding down with low level blues by the time I complete the drip acclimation.
Please don't blast me for not having a proper QT; I'm poor. I am including a link that shows one of the frags, they are both Leptos if that matters.
