Hi everyone, I have a 10gal with a good amount of coral, overstocked invertebrates, and two clowns. It has been running for 4 months. I'm moving in a couple weeks and have a new 55gal tank (with sump) setup at my new place. It has been setup for 7 weeks, cycled with Dr. Tims, ammonia reading 0.2 and nitrates 10+, did a 50% water change today. I bought a scolymia and two indo torches a week ago and they have opened up nicely. Ideally I would like to package up all the livestock and put them directly into the new tank - but should I be worried about putting these more sensitive/expensive corals in such a new system?
Would it be worth it to drain the 10gal, keep the rocks wet, reset it at the new place and put the sensitive corals back into it? Vs putting them directly into the new 7 week old tank?
