Thinking About Shutting Down
I hate to admit it but I'm contemplating shutting down my tank as life has just turned too busy to really enjoy the hobby. I plan on picking it back up in the future so I'm not sure how to proceed...
I'm not decided if I want to sell the whole works or just the livestock and store everything else for future use someday.
If I was to keep tank, sand, and live rock does anyone have any experience/advice on how to properly store it. I have about 140 lbs of live rock which of course can be kept in tank - but I'm sure it's going to smell something awful. How long will it smell bad? I want to keep it in the garage but I have to keep all my family members happy at the same time. Sand would probably fill 3-4 five gallon buckets - anything I should know about storing the sand?
Any helpful suggestion would be most welcome.
