Hello all,
I just finally got the go ahead for the tank upgrade from the wife. I've had my 55 set up with about 6 months now. Great coralline growth on the glass walls and corals thriving. I've had this tank setup for years just not all at once and have been itching to build a new stand and build another new custom tank. I have many ideas in mind but I am worry about one thing. My wife is in the military. She's currently in pilot training for the next 10 months. Seems like a long time, but I am worried about having to move a larger system. Does anyone have any advice for this?
I have moved my 55gallon many times, with sump and stand and everything and it was not to bad but it was only a 4-5 hour drive. I am worried about cross states, etc. Will moving a larger system be much different? You guys think it's worth building a new one? Fortunately, I have all the equipment for something in the 120-150 range. skimmer, lights, etc. Just missing the tank and stand.
So ya any ideas on how I can maybe start this build, if i decide to, to make it easier and be ready for a month in a year or so. Or even taking advice on maybe just not doing anything at all!
Thanks.
