Greetings!
I have an established 37 gallon reef tank that recently had an outbreak of dinoflagellates (Ostreopsis). Unfortunately, the tank also has a seal that is going bad (developing some larger bubbles), and so I'm using these circumstances as an opportunity to upgrade to a larger 130.4 Waterbox.
Due to the impending leak, I'm interested in transferring all my livestock (fish, inverts, bta, and coral) in as short a time as possible while still being safe (...perhaps this is an oxymoron?).
To help seed my new 130.4 system, can I transfer my live rock from my dino-infested 37 gallon? I would plan to give each rock a good scrubbing and saltwater rinse before adding to the new tank.
Are there other things I need to be concerned about? I'm open to other ideas and suggestions if you'd kindly be willing to share. Kind of stressed out right now...
Thanks
