Moving Tanks Blog

There seems to be a lot of questions about moving fish and tanks, so I am going to attempt to do a picture blog of moving my fish two states over on Tuesday or Wednesday of this week (I promise the rest of the pics will be better quality than these initial ones).

Here are the "before" pictures and info:

10 Gallon Tank
Animals: 4 Ghost Shrimp, 2 Oto, 1 Betta
Plants: Java Moss
Substrate: Gravel
Filter: 1 sponge and 1 Aquaclear 20

I just moved the 10 gal to the kitchen yesterday (the dresser it was on will be moved before the tank is), and Hollywood likes it much better than the bedroom...more action. I'm going to try to put him in a busier part of the house this time around.

29 Gallon Tank
Animals: 3 Bolivian Rams, 4 Otos, several Ghost Shrimp (initially 4, but there are more now...not sure how many), 8 Neon Tetra, and 1 true SAE
Plants: Java Moss, Anubias Coffeefolia and Nana, Echinodorus amazonicus and tenellus, Vallisneria Spiralis and Americana Gigantae, Sagittaria Subulata, Pennywort, Bacopa Monnieri, Cobomba Caroliniana, and Water Wisteria
Substrate: Eco-Complete
Filter: 1 Aquaclear 50 and 1 Aquaclear 20


Wish me luck...hopefully all these are alive, well, and in one piece at the end of the week!

Well, we made it and everyone's alive. Pics and such will be up later...busy doing water changes right now as I have just a touch of ammonia in both tanks. Colors are still a bit dull, but much better than they were last night, and everyone appears to be responding to surrounding and active.
