Thats strange, we just moved my 110 gal into the new house and the fish were in a 5gal bucket for a good 4 hours, with the shrimp lobster and all! I just put the airstone in every once in a while for a short time and that was that. I think the mistake was taking the fish out last, I took the fish out before I even touched the liverock or disturbed the sand (which I believe let out a crap load of nitrates and trapped dead stuff) another advantage of taking the fish out first is you get to fill the bucket right away of clean same temp tank water.
