My current plans are as follows
-siphon out about 20-25% of the water into some container yet to be bought
-put the rock into that container
I have that part mostly decided, this is where I am stuck.. I can't decide how to move the fish. I was thinking of buying about 3-4 five gallon totes and splitting up the fish, then I also though about buying a bigger sized maybe 20+ and putting all the fish into one. Maybe different advice?
Current fish are
- Blue Tang
- Sailfin Tang
- 2x Perculas
- Lawnmower Blenny
- Cleaner Shrimp
- 4x red hermits
- 8x misc snails
I really need a bigger clean up crew (will happen with my upcoming upgrade)
Just so you know what I'm working with. The move is coming in about 2 weeks, so I really need to get a plan together that I'm 100% confident with.
So aside from the beginning of the move, what should I do when I arrive at the new place? Any advice anybody could give me would be more then appreciated.
Edit: I plan on leaving the sandbed as is with maybe an inch of water above it. Unless it would be significantly better to just replace the sand? Benefits?
