If you were looking for a video about how move an aquarium, this is not it. This is how we moved the aquarium in extreme circumstances in the middle of the initial lock down. My initial plans fell through and some amazing people from the Boston Reefers Society came to the rescue!

A day I will never forget! Glad i could help! When i was in a similar situation, i reached out on Boston Reefers, and thats when Jesse messages me offering a helping hand. Great community will do all they can to help.
I also have a reefer peninsula. :)
Also I love watching your videos.
this is so interesting! thank you! so glad some reefers helped you!
Wow lots of work. Those guys were awesome my hat off to them...
Great job w the video also! Awesome how you put it all together!
Thanks! It took soooooooo long to edit. Between my camera and phone over the prep and move I had 9 hours of footage to work with lol.
Great video per usual @Puff Daddy Reef. @bostoncoral Geoff is about as stand up as they come. Glad to have you and him as part of our great community over at Boston Reefers Society. BiggiePauls33 signing off.
Love the bucket step stool. 👍🏻😁. Moved several tanks before and it’s not fun as it always takes longer than planned. Glad you had help and another reason to join your local club!
Happy to see a local Brs member making videos!
Awesome mate... happy reefing don’t give up
Awesome to have outstanding freinds like these two gentleman. I have to join a reefing club here in nj cause my family not Really into reefing. And i have 3 setups. 50gln low boy with strictly softies , 2 clowns n one Mandarin. 6 ft long 100gln and a 24 gln with anemones a n d 4 clowns. Great team work and post the finally resetup in the new crib. Happy reefing from NJ.
You have the best friends ever. Moving a large tank is a nightmare. Especially living in a apartment! All day project for sure. God bless those two!
These guys are 100% top notch great people. We had not even met before the move, they just responded to my post for help on the local club forum. After the move I can say they are now friends and I am happy to help the next time they need a move for sure!
@@PuffDaddyReef That's what the hobby is all about, getting together, and helping each other out 🙏 I can't number the number of times my local group has pulled through for me, whether I needed last minute water, carbon or something. Of course, I return the favor as well
The tank and view looks A1
awesome video! have a great Sunday!
You too!
Beautiful tank man 👍🏻
Crazy process got to love it
It was so crazy. So happy it is done. It is amazing how much space everything takes up when it is not tucked neatly in the tank.
Dude I have been waiting for the update. glad you got it moved! 100% agree with the guy who said gotta have friends in your corner that have your back. get those guys some beer ASAP.
question what suction cup did you use? link?
You standing on the bucket with the large rock made me so nervous.

A day to move heaven and earth! Takeaway, don't move! 😂
That is the correct takeaway.
Great friends!
Amazing!
Love that shark
Napoleon loves you too!
Amazing!!! Will you do any videos on how to set up and maintain a successful reef tank? Your aquariums look amazing 👍
Wow that was a beautiful apartment!
Thanks!
Stainless steel rust with salt in time what you want is aluminum if you don’t wash stainless with fresh water it will eat it up I had found out the hard way and it’s cool that there are still people who care that’s awesome 😎
I want to move so badly but dread moving my reefs (again). My last move was about as bad as possible 7hr+ distance AND 6 weeks of waiting to move into new house. I kept various smaller tanks and buckets in my parents bathroom for 6 weeks. Obviously lost a lot but not so much in the initial move, it was the waiting to move in that killed me (my livestock).
Stress level as a viewer = 143%
Muito top e trabalhosos ja passei por isso e eu sei o trabalho que da tinha um reef de 200x60x60 brasil abraço
Obrigado! Olá dos Estados Unidos
What kind of white board is that, that you have around the tank stand?
Great move and good guys to help. What kind of board is that in the inside of your tank? I’m looking for the same to cover the bottom glass
It is white acrylic. I called a local industrial plastic shop and they cut it for me on the spot.
Glad all went well, I’m moving soon too, but 5 hours away. Do u think a 20 gallon reef aquarium will be much easier? It’s packed with coral. And I really don’t wanna leave the coral at lfs cause where I’m moving the selection of coral is slim pickings. Let me know some tips. And ur community of people there is amazing. Glad they helped u.
Are you able to get a tank upgrade and start setting that up at the new location? That will be the easiest if you can get a new tank running and just transfer the coral. If not, it should still be doable. You need to pack each coral individually in a separate bag just like when you get them in the mail. I recommend selling half your coral if you can so if a catastrophe happens you are not out of luck. Make all fresh sea water for the new setup. Get it up to temp before transferring the coral. Get help, even for 20 gallons you will need the extra hands.
Ya I’m thinking of setting up a new tank before I get there permanently. But I have a zoa garden going about a 1 foot and a half long full of different zoas. What should I do there? Couldn’t I use a car adapter for plugs and put a heater in a tub with the coral and should be fine? Also could throw in a air bubbler for circulation?
What kind of shark is that?! So cool to be able to have it with coral and fish!
You should check out love the reef great store in Massachusetts. I am also on Boston Reefers Society
Went there last week! They are a really good store! Clean with happy fish and coral!
European Aquatics is another great one, not to mention the owner Marty is a awesome guy.
Corey Atturio yea been there to Marty is great
What kind of plastic is the white sheet on the bottom?
Nope! That is an insane amount of work. I hope nothing died 😣
If I have a 6 feet by 2 feet aquarium can I keep a full grown epuallete shark in ig
Hello from Indonesia..
How are you, hope your moving process doing well for your shark tank.
I have a question... Is it safe to put bamboo shark in reef tank? Coz sometimes i put dosing like trace element, amino, reef ab+ etc.
And how to teach this baby shark to eat..
Hope you can read and share your experiences to me.. Thanks
The trace elements should not bother the shark if they are dosed at normal levels. There is a risk that the shark will eat shrimp, small snails, and crabs. I have found that they really like scallops. Try that to entice it to eat. Then feed a mixture of raw shrimp, scallops, and squid. They also will take certain types of see worms. It may take a newborn a few days to eat. That is ok. I would feed every other day. Do not feed too much or the shark will start fasting. You can also use live shrimp to entice it, hold them under it's nose with tweezers. The shark will increase the bioload of your tank so make sure you have lots of filtration so the coral are not affected. Good luck!
What is the material of the base that you put at the bottom of the tank? What’s the reason to put that base? Is it because you don’t use sand and don’t want the rocks to crack the glass?
Nah a lotta ppl do bare bottom and no base just look at BRS they use flat foundation rocks from Marco but the base is prob to provide the natural sand color look it's easier to siphon then sand.so that's why they do bare bot
hello, what is the material they put on the floor?
ABS Acrylic
Have always been curious, what floor did you live on??
9th
How is Napoleon doing these days?
What's in the white container inside the tank?
A shield to keep my fish from stealing food from a brain coral I was trying to plump up.
@@PuffDaddyReef Oh cool, that's a good idea.
Damn so did you have to chisel all the encrusted Coral off the rock?
Yes. The rocks were to big to fully submerge in buckets.
Hey, I live in the Boston area too and Im looking to start my first saltwater tank soon. Do you know of any good LFS in the Boston area thats more marine focused?
Get a bigger net dude😂
🤣
Not a wife to be seen...
