Moving fish

[noglet]

Hi everyone

When I moved out of home I bought a new tank and left my other one at home with my parents. Now one of my mollies has given birth I need the space of a second tank for the babies so I'm planning on moving the old tank to my house. There are only 2 rummy nose tetras left now but I'm not sure what to move them in? Do I need to give them oxygen on the journey as I can't put air in the bag? It's an hours drive and don't want them to suffer/risk losing them... they're a couple of years old and seem healthy at the mo.

Any advice welcomed.

Thanks

Net and bag them (ask for a couple of bags from your LFS) then remove almost all of your water from the tank (use fish bags from LFS) don't remove gravel!!!! Then just transport the tank, fish and bags of water to your new home. When at home pour the water back into the tank and put the fish in the already stationed tank. I'm sure there is a safer way of transporting the water, but if you choose to do it my way, double bag each one.
