4-8mths is a damn long time. I am not sure if you are able to find that level of commitment from other reefers.

I would follow silverfish suggestion, or shut down the tank temporarily. Sell off all live stock/ live sand since I presume you just started. Not too much of a loss and start up again 1/2 year later.

Best of luck anyways, bro. Tought decision.
