Question
I am moving my residence and i have a fish tank its about 20 gallons with 8 fish how do i go about moving the tank from one place to another.
Thanks for your help.

Answer
Hello. Moving is a hard subject. It very stress full for fish. You can move the fish to a relative or friend who lives nearby where you are moveing which i suggest. You can also put your fish into a fish bowl and cover the top with plastic wrap to prevent spilling however this is going to stress the fish out so some may not live and there is no oxygen curculating this could also kill the fish. That last option you have is giving your fish away and starting over at your new place. Good luck!
