so, i have started a 20g tank months ago, in lieu of my 65g because, at some point, i want to move from apartment living to a home. with the housing market the way it is, who knows how long that could be, but anywho....when it comes time to move, and if i were to decide to use my 65g (or even for moving my 20g), what is the best route for going about it? my move wont be much more than probably across town, so im not moving far. could literally move and set back up in the matter of an hour or so.
if you were to move a tank, what steps would you go about doing it? with my bad joints, hips, and back, i would probably have to have movers do it for me, and one thing i am mostly worried about is the rock, substrate, etc. ive heard stories of people moving stuff over from one tank to another, and ultimately messing up the cycle, even though that is truly what would be going on here, since i would just be removing stuff to move it elsewhere, and put it back in, but figured i would listen to people that know more than me, or have gone through the experience themselves
