Yea...my plan is the same as stagofdoom's but I'm just worried about sponges crashing my tank and what I should do with the sand. I assume I should scrape sponges off before the move. Also, I was wondering if I should rinse the sand with salt water to get rid of detritus. The only thing i have that eats detritus is an emerald crab, so nothing is dependent on it except the fauna in the sand. I have a 1inch 3 month old sandbed, so I'm not even sure if I have much in the sand. It will only take an hour or two for the move so I'm not worried about temp swings.
