Tank switch

[Zerandise]

somethiung i did both times i moved my tank was to use a plastic bag over the sand. take a garabge bag and rip it so you can place it over the sand bed. then when you poor the water onto it it wont stir anything up. it will cloud the tank very little.

From my above lengthy explanation, here is how I cure LR. Others may have alternative methods/suggestions:

cure live rock in a separate rubbermaid container with heater, powerhead and small light. I also added extra calcium during the curing process to help keep coraline alive and maybe even growing.
Make sure new LR is fully cured by the time the tank switch is made so there will be minimal algae blooms in the main tank once it is set up.
