dod what i did man new tank in a different area alot better. i took the rock out and the corals out sucked the sand out and clean it all in the and placed it back in the tank then i ahve clean new sand left about 2-4 icecream pails of old sand to seed it later. in thenew tank i was making about 80 gal of new water same salinity and then took sump off line took the water from the sump and put in new tank.

then what ever water was left in the tubs i had about 50 gal left went back to the new tank now all the old water water was thrown out and the tubs with corals in there were trnafered in to the newtak with the tub water. 5 gal here to the tube as and wait like 15 mins and then switch out all of it and then place the rock in the tank and then the fish and then the corals lost nothing total time 4 hourse from start to finish.
