so i have a 29 gallon freshwater planted aquarium and im moving to a new house about 2 miles away i have a empty ten gallon tank so any suggestions on how to move it .thanks in advance
So use 10 gallons of water from your 29 gallon, then place your filter media, fish, plants into your 10 gallon. Remove almost all the water from your 29 gallon just leave a small layer on top of the substrate to save the BB. When you're driving put the aquarium in between your seats in the aisle as secure as possible. Try to keep the water from the top of the aquarium about 3-4" down. When you arrive in the new house set up the 29 gallon, fill it one third of the way and add all plants and decorations. Fill it the rest of the way restart your filter and heater. Then drip acclimate the fish and add them in. That's how I would do it but good luck
