    Hi, I am moving my 20 g and 75 g next week. We are not moving far, about 10 miles. Any suggestions from past experience on the best and safest way to move the water and livestock? The only advice the LFS gave me was to stir up the sand everyday so I don't get a nitrate increases after the move and cross your fingers nothing dies. . . .I didn't think that was very good advice. I am hopeful the move will go well with the right methods. Thanks for you help!

    I move at the end of this week. I have been told to remove everything if you can and leave the sand covered in about 1/16th of water, but i cant be there for the move so im going about it a diff way.
