    If you are able to, bank some frags of your best corals with someone you can count on. If worst case happens, you can always start again with your frags.

    I thought about that. I may have to get in touch with some of the local guys here.

    Great idea.

    That's even a good idea without a tank move.

    You can also leave all the existing sand in the tank just make sure not to stir the sand. Leave just enough water in the tank to cover all the sand and when you are ready to fill the tank with the water that was taken out from your tank place plastic bags over all the sand to keep it from stirring and creating a sandstorm. If the sand is stirred it is very likely that it will cause a cycle.
