HI all

I have a 2 feet cube tank in my room/with cabinet and chiller etc

and is filled with water

I just wonder how am i going to shift the whole tank

to my kitchen

any one can give good advise

tks

that's going to be heavy. i think maybe drain out the water and ask a few bro to quickly puch the whole tank into the kitchen room then put the water back.

or else really need a big tub, get all ur stuff out , then all ur stuff in again.

2x1.5x1.5 tank

Lighting: AI hydra 52HD

Skimmer: Deltec SC 1455

Reactor: Minimax; rowaphos

Skimz  ; NP biopellets

Wave Maker: MP 40 WQD

Return pump: Eheim 1262

Chiller: Arctica 1/10 hp

sounds like going to sweat like siao

luckily mine no sand , no corals and only one lion fish

and a handful of rocks

maybe as well use newly seawater :huh:

and redo everything haha

rescaping is more or less a must BUT rem not to use 100% new water cuz will have to recycle again.

Without sand is an easy task. Just prepare a big tub, shift everything into the tub, then shift your tank. If you do not have a big tub, you can just use a few bigger pails, one of them for your lion fish, and the rest for your LRs, don't really need to injet air bubbles as the shifting process should be quite fast.
