We had a 155 salt water reef tank prior to our move.
We also had a 72 bow tank for the salt water fish with teeth (my tank)
when we moved, the owner of our new home let us move our fish cross state to set them up in smaller tanks till the movers (a day later) would take the large tanks in the moving truck. OUR LUCK, a massive storm came and dumped a ton of water in the area we were in, and the movers CANCELLED on us...they couldnt reschedual for 3 more days. We had to move closings on two houses, and couldnt get back to the house the fish were in, due to flooded out roads!!!. In the same storm on the side of the state where our fish were, The electricity went out, and no one told us. After we closed we immediately came to the new house, cars filled with parrots in travel cages, to open the front door and the smell of death was overwhelming. Every single fish and coral died. We lost Thousands of dollars and two very well established tanks.From 2000)
We have yet to set them back up, because of the involvement and dedication it takes..... .
