I have a 125 gallon tank with 2 6" blood parrots .. 2 11" oscars .. 2 7" bala sharks and a 13" pleco .. Fish tank is very heavy and I have a lot of gravel, rocks, and decoration in it .. I'm sure the first step would be to take out all the gravel, etc. .. And i know to save some water to maintain the beneficial bacteria .. but what about the fish .. I'm moving about a half hour away and dont want them to die .. Please help
 
the best thing i would suggest would be to find a fairly big bag fill it with the water and but maybe 2-3 fish in each one and bring some spare water to switch incase they start trying to breathe oxygen cus the water is de-oxygenated
 
I would put them in a jar or bucket that would fit them single or all in one. since it's only a half and hour drive unlike my move across the nation where I had to give all of mine away, they won't be harm to the extend of death.
