Aquarium Advice Regular
Ok, my new tank is just about done. Its close to being plumbed and im getting ready to make the move.
My 30 gallon has about 50 lbs of rock and about a 2" sand bed.
I bought another 45lbs of rock that is currently curing and another 90lbs of sand.
Now Im trying to figure out the best way to move the tank over.
I plan on putting the 50lbs of rock and my livestock into a 50 gallon tub while i get the main tank filled.
Sooo do these steps make sense?
Fill the new tank with new salt water
Rinse the new sand
Put the sand in the tank along with some of the old sand from the 30 gal.
Put the new rock in the tank
put the old rock in the tank
make sure the levels are all correct
move the livestock into the tank
in order to not have a full cycle in the new tank, do i use the water from the old tank and put that in the main tank first? and use some of the old water for the tub with the livestock?
Thanks in advance.
