never heard of nobody wanting to stoke their tank before, tank size etc might help!

Telling us how big the tank is would help =P

When you move the fish make sure you move the filter as well to preserve the beneficial bacteria!

I have 2 glass cat fish and they are really cool

I also have two glass ctafish, make sure you give them some shaded areas, mine love them! Apparently they like to be in 3's or 4's.

Glass catfish should be in shoals of 6 or more, like other shoaling fish. They also get to 5 inches or so and should be kept in large 3 foot tanks or even bigger

the tank is 55 gallons

Then a school of 6-8 glass cats would be fine. Maybe even a few more, if you don't want too many different species in the tank.
