How to Move A FISH TANK! Moving my AQUARIUMS to my NEW APARTMENT!
If you've been following along with my channel, you know that I recently got MARRIED! Of course, I couldn't live in an apartment without having some FISH with me! So I needed to move my 29 gallon aquarium and my 15 gallon fish tank to my new apartment. My 29 gallon is a community aquarium and my 15 gallon houses my Red Wolf Fish. This is the PERFECT "how to" for anyone looking to make a similar move!

Thank you so much! I just bought a 10gal as a hospital tank but it's already well cycled with a dozen critters that will eventually go into my 40. This really eased the anxiety I've had all day!

I have to move 3 large, fully aquascaped aquariums from QLD to VIC (which is a 5 day drive) and I can already tell it's gonna be hellish haha. My biggest worry is having to rescape the tanks and the survivability of my 3 bettas during the 5 day drive.

LIFG, a solution to the water change issue may lie back at the orange bucket store. 30(or 39) gallon heavy duty trash cans matched to their attachable wheels (grey can, black wheel set) allow you to fill one can with new water, treat it and position it near the tank. A second can allows you to remove the old water. Harbor Freight makes submersible pumps of different sizes, I use the second smallest, these can be plugged into a foot switch, also supplied by HF, which allows you to turn on and off the pump when you're ready- no spillage or spraying that new TV- a clear hose attached to the pump moves the water into the tank. To remove old water just siphon it into the other trash can. Move the pump from one can to the other to dispose of the old tank water. It's been a good system for me who, also has water access challenges.

I know I'm a bit late (BY 2 YEARS)and Im moving my fish to a new house. The drive is 12 HOURS! Also the roads aren't exactly straight and smooth. What is your advice?
@LongIslandFishGuy
@LongIslandFishGuy 2 жыл бұрын
Never too late for me! I recommend using a batter power air pump with an air stone to keep oxygen in the water and putting the filter media in with the fish. Don’t make the water level too high in the container/bucket or the water will go all over the place! Although 12 hours is a long drive, the fish should be fine. What type of fish? How many?

This video is full of useful tips, but what would you do for a sponge filter? I don't have any filter media. Also, I'm just going to move my betta and some plants for 3 hours, do I need an airstone (or oxygen tablets)? And uhh I'm going to move my tank on a train, in a cooler. Is there any tips for that?

An airstone wouldn’t hurt the fish and can only help. I would add one just to be on the safe side. Good luck! 👍🏼
