When upgrading from 88 gallon to 240 gallon.. I will be just transferring liverock and ditching the sand for now.

my concern is that I will lose some fish because I’m losing beneficial bacteria.

Any input ?

The fish are staring at me with hungry eyes.

Are you adding any new rock or media? You should be okay with the rock you have unless you have pushed the bioload to the max on the 88.
