Im moving in 5 days from today. I have a 120 mixed reef aquarium with only 2 fish now but still lots of coral. Any advice on makeing the move with out killing everything? Good news new house is only about 20min up the road.
 
If u think it's going to take ten hours well multiply that by five.

I recomend getting a holding tank set up at the new home somewhere out of the way this way u can just put everything in there and take you time setting up the tank the RIGHT WAY THE FIRST TIME

a rubber maid pond tank at tractor supply is what I recommend

Air pumps for the ride to keep everything oxygenated and take ur time

Keep us posted and good luck
 
Its a lot of work, but not a big deal. You need a lot of bins and buckets. You can hire someone to do it for you if you want.
 
Well i got it moved and its looking like iv lost all my sps and lps im down to one fish but on the other hand all my zoas and soft coral seem to be doing ok. I will post some photos tomorrow.
