When my 10 gallon tank is ready, how is the best way to transfer my 5 Neons to the tank? Do I put them in in something with a mixture of new tank and old tank water for awhile? What is the drip method? Thanks!

The tanks' water chemistry should be the same or very similar. Assuming the temp is also the same just net and move. If there is a big difference betweent the two tanks then you will need to add some new water to a bag or container, what ever you have them in, ever 15 minutes or so until it is mostly new water. I don't think you will need to do this though.

As long as the temp is the same in both tanks, just move them. You do not need to do anything else.
