Transfering from BW to FW

Thanks, I will be sure to do that. I was so close to buying them today when I went to the pet store. I went to buy some corys to be mates in my community tank, but when I saw the DPs there, lookin' so freakin' cool, I was so close to buying one right away. But, reason prevailed, and I decided that it was best to wait until I can properly care for them.
 
Alright, I'm (finally) ready for the pufferfish to go in their new home. I want to buy two tomorrow, but I've got a question, first. After weeks of careful consideration, I've decided that it may, in fact, be better to acclimatize the puffers via a drip method., so that's what I'll do when I buy them, I'll pick up some plastic tubing for it.

The question, however, is can I introduce plants while the drip is going? I plan on having two puffers, each in different bags, and a drip cord going to each of them. While I'm doing this, is it okay to place some plants in, or should I put the plants in and then get the puffers in a few days afterwards? I've been waiting months for them, so a few days doesn't seem like much more now, but it DEFINITELY will seem that way later.

Anyway, thanks for any help, everyone.
 
Well, I didn't really give much time to reply, but I bought the puffers today, along with the plants. Things went well, and they seem to like their new home. One has already hunted down two snails, and I've also given them some frozen bloodworm, which they loved. I fed them too much, though, so I'm going to syphon some out of there in a little while, if they haven't eaten much more.

Thanks for all the tips, everyone!
