That all depends on what our next living arrangement looks like. We're sort of up in the air as to whether we'll be staying in Calgary or not, there's a chance we might move to Vancouver, but there's also a chance we might move to San Francisco, New York, Melbourne, or New Orleans. It really depends on what happens with work in the next 6 months. We may end up needing to rent for a few months while things get settled, and if we stay in Calgary, we'll likely buy a place that requires major renovation, so there's a good chance I'm going to have a long stretch where I can't have a tank.

The best case scenario is that we buy a place that needs little to no work in calgary, with at least a month's overlap between possession of this place and our possession of the next place so that I can set up a new system using my current equipment and move everything over, then have enough time to turn the cavity my tank will leave behind in to a closet. I doubt highly that's going to happen though, and I don't think we'll even know what's going to happen by the time we list this house.

Rather than having several grand in livestock to worry about when things are so unsettled, it would be better to just sell the whole system with the house and start over (with the latest and greatest in LED lighting technology) when we're in a place that we know we'll be in for a long time. Also, my favourite part of a tank is setting it up, so the idea of starting from scratch excites me a little.
