I just shifted my two res from a 2ft tank to a 4ft tank. I filled it with tap water and its quite safe i guess in singapore as most people use tap water here..
After shiftint they close their eyes alot and keep scrwtching them and chomping in water. I am worried as i done all i can to take care of them. They were rescued.
