The ocean in my room

I finally moved my fish tank home from school... but come next fall it's back at Oregon State Uni. Transporting the whole setup is a bitch, but so worth it

Did you empty it when you moved it?

Yeah... I had to empty out pretty much most of the water from the tank, pull out all the rocks and pumps. It was kinda tricky because the anemones attach themselve tp the rocks and are hard for me to detach them. So a few coolers with water was definately needed. Aside from that the 1 hour drive to my house was fun

must be a lot of effort making sure the water is all right.
thats what puts me off keeping fish.

I had to move my sisters tank when she moved back to jackson. I had her whole apt packed and ready to go by 12 except for the damn tank. We didnt leave untill 3 because it was such a pain in the ass. Never again

Yeah, at first maintaining the tank was quite difficult because the water params is always changing but once that phase is over (one month or so) all you got to do is feed the fishies

.

I'll try to post another pic of the tank today.
