I have one of those clip on the side boxes. I put the fish in, and clip into the darkened tank to adjust temp. Then I dump out about a third of the original water and add tank water. I watch the fish carefully at this point, if after 5 min they seem fine I do another 30% wc with water from the tank. I repeat this another time and by then there is very little original water left. Then I let them swim out of the box into the tank.
What do you call the box or where do you get one?

It looks like this, I think mine was aqueon brand or something and I just picked it up at the LFS in one of the random equipment aisles. I've seen them at petsmart too.

Thanks, now I know what to look for. I am going to start using this method. Question though, how do you start the drip? Is it like siphoning gas?

I found a breeder box at pets Mart that doubles as a aclimation box. It comes with everything needed for 15 bucks.
