I am moving within 2 months, any advise ??

I just finished moving my tank to my parents place. Keep everything in water. Also remember that some stuff doesn't make it. I lost 2 sps colonies during the move but besides that all the fish did well. Take as much water with you and than have a couple of fresh batches ready for the top up after.

And yes with keeping the rocks submerged it is due to the fish. This is how my watchmans and royal gramma decided to travel.

Good luck, its stressful and i hope the best for you

Get lots of rubbermaid containers. I had my old tank set up and needed to empty it first as I was putting the new tank in the same spot. I set up the rubbermaids with heaters and powerheads. And I transferred as much water out as I could first, then I took out the rock and put it in another container. I saved almost all of my water as I went from a 72 gal to a 120 gal. So I needed to keep most of it. A little different in your case. Put your corals in one container, fish in another and rock in another. I would not use the water from the coral one however.

It takes longer than you think. I would take the water out the night before...if possible. As Naesco said and let the fish calm down overnight.
But I would say you should keep the rock in water while it is being moved and get someone to help.

Hope this helps if you have any questions either Email or PM me.
