okay so i have decided to just bring the whole 10 gallon tank home. im gunna put the water in my 2.5 gallon jugs with handles and take the rock and coral in one of them. then ill just leave a little bit of water in there for the sand. then ill just carry the tank and water jugs out... wha do you think i think as long i do it pretty quickly it will be okay

That's what I did when I had a 10 gal in college. I used some rubbermade containers for the fish - wrapped the lr in wet towels and put them into another container. then brought the rest of the water home in some jugs. Make sure you don't leave any lr in the tank tho. I left a smaller piece in there and took a turn a little too sharp. You can guess what happened. Broken glass all over my trunk. Sound like you have a good plan tho.
 
gah, youare taking the rock out?! i was going to drain my tank half way so all the rock was still underwater. Take out the fish and shrimp if i could and the loose corals and throw them in a bucket. Then just put the tank and filter in my bid storage bin (basically a rubbermaid) so if it spilled it would be in the tank. Then i was gunna just drive home. You think i should take all the rocks out? my rocks are pretty big compared to the tank and i figured the lose one i have id put in the sand
