I am setting up a new 125 g tank. I have had most of my live rock and livestock in a 50g for more than a month. I have combined livestock from other aquarist and from local stores. Currently it is separated into tree tanks while the new tank is being placed. Everything looks o.k. (cleaner shrimp, bicolor dotty-back seem a little stressed- they are not coming out very much, but I have seen them eat).
I am wondering if I should treat everything with a dip or bath before transferring it all to the new tank. Also, would it be prudent to use some of the water they are in or should I make all new. The water parameters are all good, but I have combined water from another established tank with my water (I bought all the livestock and transferred most of the water with it).
