    when I move my tanks I try to set up a big tub with everything (power head, hob filter, heater and light) for the move and use an inverter for the trip if it's a long trip. I will still do this even if it's not a long trip just to make the move less stressful on me because I can take more time if I want to. I can never set things up so that their as happy as they'd be in a tank, but it's good enough that I have time to do what ever I need to.

    Hey I'm really sorry to hear such bad luck. I actually found a video I watched today that may interest you


    (Never added a video so here's the link on its own)

    YouTube - Custom Aquariums and Saltwater Fish Los Angeles

    Really hope you get sorted & up & running with minimal problems

    Good luck

    Very nice I should have thought of that last night when I was finishing the mixing of the salt water.

    Thanks bro Ill def hit you up.

    Also thanks to everyone else for the help and support, one good thing that came out of this is I was planning a custom build well I can just make it a smaller cube and use some of the glass from the front and bottom of my tank for the sides on the custom build I was going to do :) So a 4ft cube that is 21" high should be okay lol

    Checked the tank out when I got home everything looks great nothing showing up on water test as of yet so im keeping my fingers crossed for no cycle, but my skimmer totally shut down last night took it apart and one of the ceramic washers in the motor is busted in half. So off to buy a new skimmer today.
