Reefing newb
i have a 90 gallon and a 72 bowfront
i bought a 175 bowfront and want to combine the two
there are a few fish i will have to find new homes for but everything else should be ok
a few preliminary questions
1- can i combine the substrates of the two tanks without problems?
2- whats the best way to make the move, i will be using the combined water of the two tanks to fill the 175 + whatever new water i have to mix up
3-my 90 gallon has a small hair algea problem that my 72 doesnt, i thought about just drying out the rock that has hair algea on it from my 90 to eradicate it and using it for base rock in the 175
4- should i just get a few rubbermaid containers to put livestock and corals in while making the move??
these are some of the questions off the top of my head
please feel free to interject things im not thinking of
i plan to do this move in 1 day
