hi reefers,

I believe alot of us have try it...

me have move my 4ft tank over to my 5ft so far dont see any problem...

1ft have your new tank fill with salt water... age it be4 the move...

took out your LS from your old tank and place them in a temp container...

move your LR and sand...

then wait for 5days to a week be4 move your LS slowly over.. provided your cycle is over...
