A week ago I bought 3 bumblebee gobys and 2 balloon Mollies. Of course, they were in a freshwater environment. I would like to start to acclimate them to brackish where they should be. Currently my specific gravity is 1.004. I am not sure what the end specific gravity should be, I have read up towards 1.010, others say lower.

If the specific gravity needs to go up, how long do I keep them at 1.004?

So far, all are healthy and eating well.

Any advice would be great, especially on the bumblee gobys

:fish2:

I think that 1.004 is fine for brackish. I have a green spot puffer in about that level and he's doing pretty well. I have not had much experience with bumblebees but I hear theyre kinda grumpy. But it all makes up for cuteness! Good luck!
