Fish Fanatic
Currently my tank is in our semi finished basement and we will be remodeling down there in a few months and I am planning on putting my 40 gallon in our office upstairs. While the tank will be drained, I wanted to switch from gravel to sand and upgrade my filter. My question is, how can I do this? I am assuming the sand will need some time to settle and I don't have another tank for my fish. I was thinking about getting 3 or 4 10 gallon buckets to house the fish and original tank water and run airstores and heaters in them for a day or so while i move the tank, add the sand, and slowly add the old tank water... Any suggestions?
