moving a tank and fish

[skylord]

If you have the help I wouldn't remove the sand. We just moved one about 2 months ago with a 4 and a 1/2 hr drive and the fish never left the tank(I'm sure they thought it was one heck of a storm). I put the rock covered with water in a container and saved about half the water in buckets. The sand, fish and enough water to hold them raced home to water I had pre-made two days before. I used an inverter to keep a power head and heater going but you wont need that for a half hour. Place the tank on half inch foam for the ride. About an hour after we were home the tank was back up and running. Everyone survived except my wallet($200 for the damn speeding ticket).
