Moving?

I inherited my tank from my mom when she decided to move across the country, and I am thinking about doing the same in a couple if years. I have some really cool fish now: 1- 4.5" Yo-yo loach, 1- 4" and 2- 2.5" clown loaches, a couple of big plecos, and a really docile convict that I would like to move across the country with me when I go. Does anyone have any advise, or has anyone done this Please help me. There's no rush, but I would like to get a plan way ahead of time. Thanks!

their are many members that have done this, and our mod cobettacouple has recently made a big move, so im sure they can help. but heres some things ive heard.

they sell bags to keep them in that lets oxygen into the bag, which helps with traveling.

a cooler filled with towels helps (maybe with water on the bottom the same temp as the tank?)

they sell something that dyes the water blue i think? something with this product helps keep the fish calm during a big move.

id recommend going to drsfostersmith.com and take a look at their products.


ps. just wondering, how big is the tank they are in?
