Tank Move

[djultimate]

Hi there,

i purchased a 34 gallon tank a while back and had it set up and running for nearly a month now.

I have noticed that the unit my tank is sat on is showing sign's of weakness and have a new one which i want to replace with asap.

For me to do this i have to completely empty the tank and content's. ( I will be saving the water from the tank ,so i can put it back in)

I have re-set up my old 10 gallon tank (approx 3 hours ago) added all the relevent solutions , tap safe , stress zyme etc. for me to put my fish into whilst i move the tank.

Am planing on doing the switch tommorow afternoon.

Will it be ok to place my fish into my old tank whilst i do the move ? i understand the tank wont be cycled.
The other option i was thinking about was to use a large plastic container , place the heater and current filter into it , and place the fish in there , though am not to sure which way is the best ?.

Why not put your filter and heater into the smaller tank and put your fish into there whilst you do the move?

I already have a heater in the old tank , i didnt think of putting the filter out of my current tank in to the old one

Thanks for the advice
