..... I think you choosed the absolute worst time to move a tank.... Well goodluck

 

[Reefplumber13]

Nah everything should go fine

This is exactly how tanks get broken. Moving at the wrong time, under the wrong conditions. In extreme cold, glass and silicone become quite brittle and the slightest wrong move will result in either a broken pane of glass or a split seam. I would not advise it but it's your tank.

Honestly I don't want to think what it could happen with the tank and the fluctuation of temps, then due to the storm many people and areas had been without power for hours and many areas more could have the power shut down and on top of that power won't come back soon.... Power outage is my concern

Hope the best if you decide to do it :sad:

+1 I see your in Douglasville the side roads still are very icy the weekend would be better imo

How big is the tank? If this is a one man operation you will probably be fine if you are cautious. One slip is all it takes to make a mess of things.

Also the variation of two degrees (celsius) stress fish and corals.

Its a 20 gallon. The fish and coral will stay in a bucket with heaters and a power head the whole time. And btw guys I said I was going to try didn't say it was going to 100% happen
