Get new sand, rinse it well.
Make all your water and have it ready, temp etc.
Pretty simple, just be quick.
I just transferred a 144G to a 233G, started at 11am and had everything in my new tank at 4am. All went smooth. I only lost a pistol shrimp just cuz I couldn't find it when I took the old tank apart. People worry way too much in this hobby and make a big deal out of nothing. You'll be fine. No skim mate that's plain silly IMO. It's just like a huge water change. Use all your old water.
Good luck
