RSR tank swap

[matt00072]

Hey guys, after some advice.

I have a RedSea reefer 250 which has a warranty issue with the tank. RedSea have been awesome and are supplying me with a new tank only, no sump no cabinet and no plumbing, just the tank.
How do I go about swapping the tank over? It currently has coral and fish.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated guys.

How old is the tank? Depending on age sand will have to be rinsed thoroughly or replaced. Everything else transfer into a brute can while you move the tank. Keep it heated and flow going.
