Background: We maybe (hopefully) moving at the end of the year and buying a village shop and the two adjoining houses, we hope to sell our house pretty soon after putting it on the market and moving in with my in-laws (who will be selling a little while after us we all move into the two houses next to the shop)

So, two tank moves in a fairly short time. (Plus, when we are in we will be having custom tank built, with ALL the trimmings, need you guys to sort me out with everything you think is best and be in on the project) NOTE: Must speak to James about a "Monk's special project" sticky thread/forum room as and when 8-)

I'm giving fish boarding serious thought (at the Waterzoo, peterborough, I've seen a number of 'boarders' there who all seem happy (Fish, softies, SPS and LPS), board the fish, shrimp and Lobster (had him 9 month's, I know he's still alive because you put some squid down in front of his 'cave' and a claw comes out 'Monty python style' to grab it :grin: ).

I'm quite happy for the coral inverts to make the two moves, infact, I can probably give them and the LR a bit of a sort out while the inmates are on holiday.

Thoughts on fish boarding?

My local shop, Leicester Aquatics used to board fish for customers who were moving, not a problem.
If you think about it they come half way around the world in a plastic bag no problem so I reckon a holiday in someones tank aint gonna do them any harm.
