Swoping fish to different tanks

[Terence]

Hi all,
Please help with the best way forward. I am no expert with fish tanks and all the chemical attributes.

I have a 5ft tank with live bearing fish(guppies, mollies, platy,etc) with a medium gravel substrate. Tank is healthy.

I also have a 4ft tank with mixed Malawi Cichlid with crushed coral substrate. This tank is now getting to small for my 25 fish. Tank is healthy.

Please advise as to how I can go about to swop these two tanks with the least amount of stress to my fish?

Before you go about the work and headache of swapping your fish, watch a video on Youtube by KGtropicals about how many Malawi cichlids will safely fit into a tank.

Thanks, watched the video and I am all good to go. My tank is about 95gal so I can fit in about 40 to 45 fish in there. This is my whole intention to swop tanks, to add more fish. The 4ft is big enough for now.
