So I've finally got the new house up to par and will be moving in on Monday! Along with the tank! This will be the second move its been through, its just a few miles down the street and hopefully everything will go according to plan.

So far my plan is to do a 15 gallon water change, bring those 15 gallons to the new house and put it in 2 shallow bins along with the fish, I'll then make trips moving all the coral colonies and frags over. Followed by all the live rock in several 5 gallon buckets. Once everything living is at the new house I'll bring the tank and stand (sand and minimal water still in it) over and get it in place.

Once the tanks in place I'll have about 20gallons of pre made saltwater at the house and begin filling it with water and the rock, once the clowdyness settles I'll add the coral.

I'm predicting it will take around 4-6 hours.

Wish me luck :)
 
Good luck. Hopefully everything works out. There's nothing fun about moving an established tank.
 
Good luck Paul. Been there twice. Lucky for me it was a 125 and not a 240.
 
Good luck! Been there done that got that T-shirt! Can't wait to see the new aqua scape!
