We've read different articles about swapping tanks, but are unsure about lights during the swap.
Usually everyday 11:30am I turn on actinics, feed fish then turn on daylights. Will it be okay to do this on the day that we swap and then turn the lights back out and take the canopy off when we start taking stuff out? Will this stress or confuse the fish because they are thinking it's night time.. or does it even matter because they'll get stressed when we start moving things anyway?
Anyone have any tips or experience with this?
Does this website pretty much have everything covered on the process?
