Yes, very likely. The ammonia levels will be through the roof. Depending on the size of the tank, you should wait a minimum of 4 days before putting fish in a new tank and even then, you should put one or two fish in then wait 2 days and put another 2 fish in.

Will it hurt your betta fish if you don't wait 24 hours to put it in the tank?

The betta itself doesn't have to wait 24 hours, but the water in the tank needs to have had conditioner put in it to take out the chlorine and ammonia. When you want to put the fish in, float the bag it is in in the tank water for at least half an hour so they reach the same temperature. Then add a little of the tank water to the bag, so he gets used to the new water chemistry. Wait a while longer, and then you can release it into the tank. If the change in temperature and chemistry are too sudden, the fish will go into shock and possibly die.

How long do you have to wait for the tank to get ready to put in a catfish?

When you get a new fish it is important to take it straight home! then You place the bag the fish are in, in your tank. wait 10-15 minutes before adding some of your tank water to the bag. wait for 5-10 minutes, then carefully put your fish in the tank with a net. wait 24 hours before feeding them. Before you buy your fish make sure you leave the water to set for at least 5-7 days. So to put a fish in a new tank it takes around 15-25 minutes.


How do you put a fish in a tank without killing it?

Gently put the bag with the fish in it into the tank - slowly let the tank water and the bag water equalize and then slowly remove the bag, letting the fish swim freely in the tank. Place fish and bag in tank, wait twenty minutes. Poke six holes in bag with a paper clip or similar small device, wait twenty minutes. Gently rip bag open, and release fish. This procedure has never killed a fish in my personal experience. Gook luck, Joe.
