I moved my 55 almost the same way. I just took about 1/2 the water out, put sliders under it, and slid it. You are only going a small distance so I would just leave the fish in it.

Is that a Tile fish I see there? Everyone I get JUMPS! I even had to cover the acclimating bucket becuase it was trying to jump out!

I have a pair that I have had for a long time and they are STILL very scared. They are the first to hide at the sign of anything.

From the research I have done no one has found out how to feed them. I had 4 of them with eggs (until one of my fish because non-invertibrate safe) and wanted to raise mine.

I second that.

You know I will be there to help if I am in the same state. Just let me know! (You will have to call or email because I don't have as much time to be on the boards as I have in the past)

Getting my two hippos out was one the hardest experiences I have had to do. They can hide anywhere! It took 2 people about 3 hours to get both of them out with a coat hanger (get them to move from between the rocks) and about 5 collection cups.

Sending PM now.

My injectors get filled with salt and I have to get it out of there.

Any pictures? If it is in good condition I know someone that would love to have it.

Still need a hand? I was out of town all week and weekend and going right back out of town tomorrow night but I should be around Sat during the day.

I have heard people that a DSB mixing that up a lot will cause harm but other than that I have not heard much. I think it really depends on a lot of factors. I moved my tank and pulled the sand first and everything lived just fine but it was only a 6 month old sand bed.

Same thing happened to me also. The spicket was not totally round....... I moved it to another location instead of having it replaced.

I don't have a hang on the back skimmer but I do have a hang on filter that I use from time to time when I make a mess in the tank. It is mechanical filtration but works great for me.

What are you using to test with? My PH probe was way out of wack and I found out that I was wrong when I was testing.

Now that is just funny.

Thanks for all the compliments everyone. I can't believe how many hours go into this and there is still so much more to do!

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Don't tell anyone about that! They may try and pick some of my money from the trees!

Cannister filter. They say they last for 3 months but I see the biggest improvements in the first month so I just change them out monthly and it is slowly dying away. I am starving it out.

Be Carefull with your returns that low that you have the reverse syphon hole drilled or you can end up sucking out 1/2 your tank water on power loss.
