In a few months I'll be moving into a new home and will therefore need to break down and move my established reef tank. Yikes! Just the thought of this increases my anxiety, for sure. I have a good idea of how this needs to go and what needs to happen but I'd like some insight from those of you that have gone through this process already. I'd love for you to share what was successful for you and what you might have done differently in hindsight. Advice, tips or words of encouragement. It's all good!
Before the big move, I plan on having 2 holding tanks set up in the new house, one for fish and one for coral with established live rock in both. This will be set up and running before the display tank is moved in and will allow for time in setting up the system in the new space. I'm preparing myself for a certain amount of loss during the process but will hope for the best. A big benefit of this move is that I get a dedicated fish room in the new house, big enough for an impressive expansion and/or upgraded system. I'm already planning it in my head, but first things first!
