tank move

[jarock]

i just started a 20g tank its been running for about 3 days now, i used about 50 percent water from my 55 thats been up over a year and 50 percent new , my question i plan on moving rock and corals into this tank from my 55g , should i be worried about anything and will i get a spike and kill all my invertes when i transfer everything over , new to doing anything like this and want to make sure when i transfer everything i don't kill it.

You probably won't see any problems.

do i have to acclimate my inverts since i am only moving them literally like 4 feet into a diff tank or should they be fine ?

Did you use rock from your tank as well? Because the bacteria is in the rock not the water column.

yah i used the rock as well

then i agree, you will be fine.

and i cant see the water being too different, maybe just double check that the salinity and temp are the same.
