Here's my plan:
Right now I have an 85g tank with everything, a 10g where I mix water for changes, and a 25g that I'll borrow from my parents. My plan is to set up the 10g and 25g with pumps at the new house and get water all leveled. Then I'll move the fish over into those (10g for my eel, 25g for 3 chromis, 3 damsels, and a coral beauty). Inverts will also go in the bigger tank. Once that happens, I drain and save the water from the 85 in rubbermades and salt buckets. Get those over and then empty out live rock and sand. Once I get the tank in the new house, I'll put live rock, sand, and water in the big tank, then move the eel from the 10g to the 25g. I'll immediately do a 10g water change, then bag up all the fish and start acclimating them to the main tank. While that's happening, do a water change with about half of what's left in the 25g, then it should be good to go.
Do you have any suggestions? Should I rinse the sand? It currently has some pink cyano growth that I'm trying to abate slowly but surely. Any other hints?
