Need to move aquarium

[Mike7744]

Hi all
I need to move my 75 gal aquarium from one room to another. Can I just remove everything and put back in when it is moved without any issues. ( Rock sand)
Will this trigger a cycle?

Thanks

IMO...You will get a mini-cycle...Once you remove that sand, its gonna cause you issues.....can you take out the water and slide the tank as is?.....

put it on a rug (tank and stand and slide)...? or like my last move ....on a skateboard...(LOL Thanks son).....

Should I replace the sand with new

I think I would if the system is more than a year or two old. It isn't very expensive to do, and you don't get an opportunity to change the sand out very often.

Depends on you.....
so can't slide stand & tank than?

The upside is that bare bottom tanks are in vogue again....LOL
