Moving across country, cheapest way?

Is there any way to move Fish? Like if Im moving across country, or across state? With out them dieing in the move?

  • I have an 80 gallon fish tank with 8 african cichlids, two algea eaters and a 10 inch catfish. When I move I want to take them with us. Ive had my fish for like 4 years, and some are even their babys. Im dreading leaving them or giving them away to someone, But I dont know of ANY way to move them without them loosing air in the water and dying for such a long trip :-( Can anyone HELP!

  • Answer:

    Well...I do know that moving fish is not an easy thing to accomplish mainly due to the fact that it's VERY stressful the fish. ai Alhough you'll need to drain much of the water to reduce the weight for easier (lighter) moving, you need to keep enough
