So Ive had a 29g reef going for about 8 months now and its been doing absolutely great but I don't want a tank in my room anymore and want to convert my 55g FW tank into a reef tank. I know 55 isn't an ideal size for reef but since I already have the tank and stand it would save a lot of money...

Hello! How long to wait before switching tanks? any problems with multiple tank moves? I currently have a 35 gallon hex with a 5.5gal sump (only thing that will fit under the stand) and do not like it. Granted it looks cool and is relatively big on gallons for its foot print; but it is a pain...

Hi guys, New to the hobby and this forum. I'm looking to purchase a used tank. Since I'm a newbie, the task of moving the tank is a little daunting. I'm thinking of hiring a professional aquarium mover to do the move - about how much would this cost, and anyone know of a service like this in...

Hello all, My girlfriend and I are likely to move places early 2016, and the apartment we are moving to doesn't allow fish tanks greater then 10G. I currently have a 5G Fluval Spec that I figured could make a decent nano/pico reef tank using the equipment and corals I have in the 29G. So what...

I currently have a 125 gal reef tank with a blue Khoran, a blue hippo tang, a yellow tang, a clownfish, a rabbit fish, two cardinals and a purple headed dotty back. The tank has been up and running for about 2 years now. I am relocating from New York to Florida and I'm trying to figure out if...

I currently have a 30 gallon tank with only two damsels and some live rock at the moment, which I plan on adding to the new tank. I am purchasing a 55 gallon tank and picking it up this weekend. This tank has a shrimp, a blenny, 2 damsels, 2 clown fish and 1 foxface that have been living in...

So I am moving to a smaller apartment and was wondering if I should stick with the 75G, I have been satisfied with it but the flow wasnt to my liking and do not feel like getting another set of poowerheads to get the flow I want. Which got me to thinking of going back to my 40B, yes I will lose...

Hi, I'm new and I'm not sure if I'm even doing this right or posting in the appropriate place :/ I might be moving from South Carolina to Montana and I'm really stressing out over the task of moving my tanks. They're all small; I have one 40 gallon, two 29 gallons, one 25 gallon and one 10...

Hi, It's been a while since I was posting questions constantly on here. But since then, I've managed to set up a 20 gallon bow front, currently only housing 2 green chromis and the cuc. Now, I have a new 180 l ( roughly 40 gal) in my living room and am really unsure on how to move everything...

Hi all, Its time to move my Oscar to his new tank and I am looking for advice on the best, ie least stressful, way to do this. He will be moving from a 75g to a 150g on the other side of the room. I have moved fish before, but never this big. He is ~17" long and I don't think he will fit...

Alright I need some of you experienced folks out there to help me with a big task. I will be moving next month I am now trying to plan my 29gal to 110gal transfer.

I'm new to the saltwater community but, I have to move my 150 gallon tank from one house to another this weekend, I was curious if you guys had any suggestions other than what I had already planned to do. My tank has been set up for about two months now and I have to move it (I know ideally I...

Gonna be moving in the next month or 2. Trying to figure out how I am gonna move my large Hollywood Stunner. It is at least the size of a dinner plate and attached to a rock. I would like to move it in a cooler, just cant figure out how to keep it from hitting the sides and breaking. Any...

Hey all. Well, I just moved from one city to another. About 6 hours away drive time. I broke down my 40GB, put my rock into buckets, and put my fish + some rock into my old 10 gallon nano as it was much easier to move. I moved everyone the night before so things wouldn't be too crazy on...

Hey I was wondering if it would harm my fish and corals if I moved them from an old tank to a new tank? I have an old JBJ 28g that I have had a year and a half that is not working properly with pump and back chambers all the sudden. I've tried all I can looking at all possible problems but it...
