Complicated Aquarium Move

[mcooter]

Hi,

Looks as if I'll be moving from Houston to Omaha--and will need to sell one house to buy another, so will be living in corporate housing (that won't allow a fish tank) for a while, at least a month, perhaps longer. Does anyone have any suggestions for boarding a tank? Or do I need to contact a fish store and return the contents? Also, I have a shrimp/goby pair in the tank,and of course the shrimp has tunnels everywhere. How would I catch and move the shrimp and goby?

Many thanks for your suggestions and help.

Get on MARSH-reef.org and sell off all livestock.
Equipment you want to keep can be moved.
Start fresh when you are ready.
The shrimp and goby will probably be one of the last things you get out.
For the hardest to remove creatures, I drain the tank almost all the way. Gives them much less space/water to run.

Sounds like there are a lot of work in front of you. May I ask why you are moving? but Good luck with everything mcooter! I hope you can find them a new home as soon as possible.
