Hey everyone. Trying to make this as quick and easy as possible. We are switching our 125 planted fresh tank to salt. Our 75g is moving to a fresh tank. We also have a 40b salt well be combining with the 75.
We have a lot of Rock in our 75 and 40 we'd like to use in the 125. Also have hob filters on both tanks with bio media in them.
If we take these rocks out, they're obviously going to dry out and die before my wife decides on a final scape. She wants to take her time on this scape and get it the way she wants.
I'm assuming if the rock drys out and we then put it in the 125, we're going to have an issue.
If there's a way we can do this, can we leave the fish and corals in their old tanks while we get the 125 ready, then just transfer as much water from the old tank as we can?
We would really like to avoid having to buy a whole new rock work for the 125 if possibe. We're also on somewhat of a time crunch on moving things as bad as that is with salt lol.
I'll be adding some Fritz turbo to get the cycle going quickly, but wasn't aware of what the die off from the rocks would do if we don't have fish in it yet, but possibly a few corals that have attached themselves to the rocks.
Thanks!
