Hi all,
I'm going to be moving my 6 month old 60 gallon reef across the country (California to Michigan) early in 2022. Looking for tips from anyone who's done something similar.
Currently the plan is to keep all corals in one container, separated by some kind of divider. They have a battery powered bubbler and heater.
Fish in another container with bubbler and heater.
Live rock, maybe sand, in a 3rd.
At night, bring into motel and plug in. Recharge batteries.
When we arrive, to my wife's dismay, the very first order of business will be to get the tank back up and running. It'll probably to through a mini cycle, but I think I may ditch the sand to keep things a little cleaner. The plan is to upgrade soon after arriving to a 200+ gallon system.
I've considered just selling everything and starting over, but frankly I'm attached and don't want to do that haha.
Thanks for any input fellas!
