The aquarium water has all the helpful bacteria in it, so the fish are used to it.
Means that if you can transport them to a tank that's been refilled with the same water they came out of, rather than fresh water, they'll settle a lot quicker, if it all.
Obviously I'll need to put some fresh in, but it would be nice to move them and they survive...
