    Update!

    Did a test today and it looks like ammonia has now gone away and nitrate has spiked!

    What do you all think??

    Picked up the peacock shrimp today around 1:30.

    Just got in the office about 10 minutes ago and he is now temp adjusting. Next will be drip acclimation.

    Here is a pic of him in the bag:
