Moving tank re-scape?

[drtrash]

getting ready to move 60 gal rock (fiji) into 100 gal, how do you scape with wet? Maybe if i had a large table i could see all the shapes but dont have that big of a tub. Could segregate by size then build, dry is much easier. I have 50-75 lbs to sort and some have lps, zoes.. growing on them

I don't know what size rocks you have now (how about an FTS) but what if you make it an arts and crafts day and mock up the rock sizes with crumpled up newspaper covered in some masking tape? You wouldn't get the specific fit between the rocks but could see what the overall shape would be like when rearranged.

Every tank I have done wet I just cover the rock with damp paper towels. As long as you don't let the rock dry out you should be fine.

Are you saying scape it outside of tank first?

I always do that, template of tank and overflow on scrap of ply, keep rock in brute trash cans and play around till I find what fits/works.
I keep dunking or pour SW on rock to keep damp.
I do pillars, and when I get one how I like I dunk it in brute w/ a PH
