Okay, so my fish are moving this weekend. The trip is about 2 hours. The only problem is their tank needs to move also - I need to take advantage of the fact the BF is coming down with the SUV - otherwise there is no way I can get my tank and stand down a flight of stairs and get it into my tiny car. My current method of moving things is either throwing them downstairs or dragging them and letting them bounce off of each stair - don't think the glass tank will like that.
My question is what should I do with the fish while we are breaking down the tank? It's a 20 g with an Eclipse hood - so there's not much to do other than drain the water and put everything in boxes. I'm thinking they will probably be w/o a home for like 3 hours.
Also, how should I transport my 20# of LR? If I just put it in a box w/o water does it need to be cured after the 2+ hours in the car or can the BF just throw it in the 165 g that already has 196# of LR?
