One of
the special challenges in the moving process is moving an aquarium. Fishes are
the most stressed during travel. Even after lots of precautions, you might end
up losing your pets. Here are a few procedures for you to follow to
avoid/minimize the loss.
The thumb
rule while moving an aquarium is that you need to move the tank and the fish
separately. Obtain best packers and movers in Chennai.
Moving
the Tank
The
important part of the tank is the filtration system as the flow of oxygen in
water is critical to the health of the fish. The procedure for moving the tank
is given below:
Select a
holding container that is suitable for your fish. It should not be too big or
too small. Also, make sure that the holding container is darker in shade as
fishes are less active in dark and it helps reduce their stress.
- Take the fishes out and put them in the holding container.
- Pack the tank
- Remove the plants and pack them with some water for keeping the roots wet.
- Pack decorative items such as stones in a separate container.
- Put the filter system and pumps in a separate container that is free from any chemical, and then treat them like fragile materials.
- If the move is short, have some dechlorinated water in hand and have some water moving through the filter.
Moving
the Fish
For shorter distances, you can pack
the fishes in sealed bags that is half filled with air. In the case of longer
distances, a sealed bucket is preferred.
Fishes can survive without food for
a week. Don’t overfeed them during the move. Also, maintain an even
temperature.

help of best packers and movers in Chennai, you can relocate your favourite
aquarium to your new home.
