My 180g has been running about 6 months now and it is finally starting to really look good! However, I am in the middle of a remodel, laying ceramic tile, painting, and such.

What I want to do is to move my tank to the other side of the living room for several reasons:
1. I want to build a custom 36" stand (current stand is 24")
2. Replace the 30 gal rubbermaid sump with a 75 gal sump/refugium
3. To be able to tile the whole floor instead of around the stand
4. to be able to paint behind the tank and replace the molding
5. And basically it will look nicer on the adjacent wall

My questions are:
1. Is this doable without losing a mess of corals and other livestock?
2. what would I need to keep everybody happy for the weekend long move
3. What about the live sand? Will I get an instant amonia spike when I set it back up

Any help, experiences and opinions are appreciated


Thanks


Rob
