Acclimate them for about 5 hours, VERY slowly. I added some to a sw tak a while back.

What kind of fish are we talking about here? Silver tipped AKA columbian sharks? If that is the fish then you have to start them in a fresh or brackish water tank and VERY SLOWLY raise the SG. Raise it by a point or two each week. It takes a few months or more to get them into full saltwater. Here is a pic to see if we are talking about the same fish.
