![]() Cycle is coming along. Ammonia and nitrites now. The plan is to keep feeding the rocks until the move.
We now know where we will be moving to so I can finally start to plan the logistics of getting everything there alive. I am thinking corals in one bucket and fish, snails and urchin in another. Would it be a good idea to bag the corals separately instead of having them all in one bucket moving around? Would the coral bucket need an airstone or just a heater? As for things that I need for the tank, I still need a good ato reservoir and a new ro/di unit. Anyone have any recommendations for a good ro/di unit that would be good with the harder water in kelowna? The current unit I have I got for free and the cartridges are $250 each to replace. ![]() Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk |

![]() Corals will be stressed no matter the move. The biggest thing is your corals will be slamming around in to one another. When I did my move I utilized a variety of buckets (5g pails and placed corals in a bunch of them. Once at my new house I transferred everything in to a Rubbermaid / stock tank. Spread everything out with a heater and power head. Didn’t lose a fish or coral, so I considered that a successful move. Your bound to break a few branches on the sps... frags

Ya I am a little worried about corals hitting each other. My thinking was fill a bucket with some tank water, put a battery powered heater in there and add some water to some ziplock bags and each coral gets their own ziplock bag and then they float in the heated bucket. I should have this tank setup at the new place all ready to go so all fish and corals will go directly to this tank when they get there. |
