Hello,
In roughly a month I will be moving but will only be staying in the new house for about 4 months until i move once again whereby I should be staying in that house for 2 years or so. I have a 65 gallon tank that has been set up for just over 3 months. I do not want to move a 65 gallon tank for only 4 months then move it again seems a lot of work.
So my idea is to set up a spare 30 gallon tank I have laying around at my new house and move my livestock into it and keep my 65g still step up in my parents house but without any fish.
So my real question is what equipment is required to stay on my 65 gallon if its only going to have substrate and LR in it? Also what portion of my CUC should I leave in the 65 gallon?
Currently I have 2 powerheads, heater, 2 HOB 110 Aquaclear power filters (one converted into a fuge and one just running chem-elite) and a coralife skimmer.
Can I take some of this equipment off and transfer it to my 30 gallon (which I only have a heater for)? Do I need a skimmer for my 30?
I only have 2 clowns and a cleaner shrimp and CUC atm so im not in danger of overstocking my 30 gallon. I have no corals as of yet but planning up picking up my first zoas before I move.
Sorry for the long read!
