Please forgive my ignorance...is this a school? Just curious...beyond that I would probably sell and restart, can't imagine the reaction of trying to check a 55 gallon and supplies
. I would think no cavity left unchecked
. No matter the situation though...congrats what an experience

Man that is really neat. Start with some shipping quotes, and then get online and see if you can look up any used stuff in Australia. See if you can figure out what would be more cost effective before you leave. Being an actuary this should be right up your ally... what would be the financial risk of shipping, vs buying new. lol

I would not even think about moving any of the fish stuff to Australia.
1) none of your electrical equipment would work there without heavy duty transformers/adapters. Different voltage in Australia than US
2) better selection of LR/LS/tanks etc locally
3) why go through all the trouble and get there with all fish and corals dead etc.
4) your tank is only 55 gallons. There can't be that many items there that would be worth going through the trouble for.
Just my $0.02 worth

I was there and it was cold as hell. But absolutely georgeous. I would sell it and start over. It would cost you more to ship everything than it would to start over. You livestock would not make it
