So I'm going to be moving at the end of the month, which means that I'll need to take down my 10 gallon tank. As for breaking it down and putting it back together, I shouldn't have too much of a problem (only moving about 10 minutes away), but I have several options in regards to the fish...
The tank currently houses 1 lonely panda cory who will be moving to the five gallon tank next week, 1 lonelier neon tetra who will be finding a new home with some playmates soon, and two black phantom tetras. So basically, the only ones that will still need to be moved by the end of the month are my two nippy black phantom tetras. The options...
Option One
-keep fish in a bucket with an airstone for one-two days
Option Two
- transfer fish to the five gallon tank @ my boyfriend's (one block away) whcih currently contains a male betta and two panda cories for one-two days
Option Three
- transfer fish to the five gallon tank and use a tank divider to keep everyone separated for one-two days
This move is gonna be a little tricky, so I'm not sure that I'm going to be able to set up the tank and make the fish comfortable right away. So I'm wondering what will be the least stressful for my travelling fishies...what say you, fish experts?
