Message-ID: <503@ihuxj.UUCP> Date: Wed, 16-May-84 22:04:05 EDT Article-I.D.: ihuxj.503 Posted: Wed May 16 22:04:05 1984 Date-Received: Thu, 17-May-84 04:48:36 EDT Organization: AT&T Bell Labs, Naperville, IL Lines: 24 My house is currently up for sale and in anticipation of it's selling, I am wondering how I should go about preparing my two aquariums, one a 30 gallon and the other 20 gallon, for the eventual move to a new abode. I thought about draining half or more of the water out (saving it?) and then trying to move them half filled. Or should I get a couple of 5 gallon buckets and put the fish and aquarium water in those? I have 2 large and 2 small gold fish in the 20 gallon and 6-8 medium fish (angels & swordtails) and 6-8 smaller fish in the 30 gallon. What does the net think? If the answer is obvious to everyone except to me, then send me mail. If your answer is unique, post to the net. I will summarize all responses mailed to me. Thanks. -- Daniel M.
