I have to move my tanks to replace flooring damaged in the Winter Storm a few weeks back. Insurance will pay me for my time but I am curious what is a fair rate. I have a 75 gallon reef tank (5 fish, 14 coral) with about 60lbs of live rock and I have a 120 gallon Cichlid tank with about 40 fish in that (80lbs of sand). thinking $30-$40/an hour tank me and a friend probably 5 hours total for the 75 ( drain tank, take out animals and rock, move tank to another room, set it back up (mostly) fix floors then do that again to move it back) for the 120 maybe longer cause its alot bigger and 3/4inch glass.
So $500 for the 75 and maybe $800 for the 120?
