My question is if I were to do this all in one day would it cause my tank to cycle again? I currently have a 55 gal tank that I would be transferring over to a 100 tank. I would remove all the fish into buckets and then drain all the water into the new tank. I would put the live rock in as well as the sand from the 55 gal. I am probably going to add some more sand because I wont have enough from just the 55gal. I was hoping that later the same day I could add all my fish back in to the 100 gal tank.
Would this cause the tank to cycle or should I be ok? Unfortunately I cant really start the new tank up early because of where I am going to put it. So it all has to be done in a day.
Any suggestions are welcome.
