URGENT - acclimation advice!

[Playdope]

I need some urgent help .... I just purchased a Naso Tang + Gonipora. I had some replacement water madeup for the tank for after I drip acclimated them in buckets..... to make a long story short... thats not available anymore... so ..
Should I just drip acclimate one, and acclimate the other in the bag over the course of an hour or so? If so, which one would be better to drip acclimate, and which should be acclimated in the bag???
I cant have the pumps running if I take the ammount of water I Need out to drip acclimate both of them. And allowing new SW to mix would take some time.
Any quick thoughts??

My 2c:

Stabilize the temperature for the fish, then dump him in the tank - he's not that bothered as long as your pH in the tank is about right. He'll grow too big for your tank anyway.

Goniopora is more sensitive. However, in the long run it will not do good for you (or anybody else), so I would not worry about it too much. If you want to enjoy it the next 6 months, drip acclimate it.

M.S.

Before I got the goni .. i was reading a thread about how they do alright if you spot feed them the Liquid Life with Cyclopeeze. Thats why I thought I would give it a shot, because I feed that regularly, and would have no problem spot feeding.

I acclimated both, and the tang seems to be doing excellent (I did decidce to drip the goni =), like you said), hehe.. good call
