Advice for moving/setting up a new setup

[Chris Abbott]

If things go well I will be closing a new to me place in a month or so. I will not have to tear down the existing setup when i move but am looking for advice on how to get the setup going as quick as possible so i don't have to go back and forth to take care of things at old house. A few questions to start:

1) Any good advice for temporary setups at new address? stock tub maybe?

I will be working on some type of setup on an existing breakfast bar with a basement sump but that is not going to happen overnight.

2) would the ceramic bioblocks from BRS be a decent option to buy now set in current sump then transfer to new setup to start/shorten cycle?

I havent updated my build thread in a long time but i still have the same 40B with 20 long sump and will try to update that thread with a pick or two soon.

Topic 3) I would love input on a type of tank to go with for my new build. I want to go a long as possible (think i have 50 -60 inches to work with) Then 14 -18 inches high ( top to bottom) 16 - 24 inches wide. I am not aware of any tanks anywhere close to these dims without going custom, but there is a lot of people here that know way more than myself. I do know a standard 125 is too big, something like a 90 extra long anyone heard of anything like this?

scratch the tank talk. Until i know exactly what dims Im working with no point in it. I would love to know experiences with moving using stock tanks or other tempoerary forms of keeping corals until new system is up and running
