High altitude reefing...asking from 9000 feet.

[Cherie cook]

Interesting question came up about moving from 300feet to > 9000 feet above sea level. How does it impact fish and corals?

Wow I hadn’t thought about that for transport honestly! No idea. ;Writing

Are you asking because you transported livestock from a low to high altitude? Or are you asking how sustainable it is to keep a reef tank at such a high altitude? I lived in Cheyenne WY which is a little higher up than the mile high city, and I was able to sustain a full blown reef tank with no problems. If there are any extra precautions necessary for acclimation, I wasn't aware of them.
