Moving my tank in 2 days, very nervous...
So I have set up a frag tank, 2' x 2' x 8", about 20 gallons at the new house.
I'm going to move the corals and live rock that has attached growth into the frag tank tomorrow. Then the morning that the movers are coming I will drain the tank, remove rock and fish, I think I will put the fish in a five gallon bucket with a lid. Only 8 fish and inverts.
I will remove everything from the main tank except the sand for the move itself. Then I will put the water I drained back into the tank.
I think I will then put the fish and inverts into the frag tank also, just to let the main tank cycle for a week before returning my stock.
Does anyone see a problem with this plan? or have other advice.
Thanks
