What I did last year was to sell as many fish as I thought I could replace easily in early June. The plan was to restock in September. I moved the remaining fish into a BC14 which I moved to a colleague's house since I was going away for a 5 week vacation. The lights on the BC 29 are on timers so it stayed. When I came back, I moved the BC 14 back and dropped by every few days to feed the tanks. Some of the LPS that benefit from feeding were a little smaller after the 5 week absence but some had actually developed new polyps.
So that's the plan for this year with the only change being that the BC 14 will be moved to a new colleague's house. It seems that having tanks in the classroom is not only an attraction for students, even ones that I don't actually teach... but also colleagues. This colleague just picked up a 75 gallon system but still comes everyday at lunch to sit in front of my tanks. Its actually nicer now that I have someone to talk tanks with
