I used a ton of buckets to move the water and LR. I always try to move as much water as possible. Not all of the water made it back into the tank, I used a bunch to scrub the rock of all the crap that builds up over time.

I used 2 10 gallon styro-foam cartons from the LFS to move the corals and fish. I figured it would help keep the heat in better. The night before the big move I drained and cleaned the tank, and put the livestock into the cartons with power heads for circulation. It worked out well, but I don't want to do it again any time soon. I feel sorry for anyone who has to move multiple tanks.

The plumbing will best describe itself with pictures. I'll try to get some soon.
