I agree with Diana, don't try to get it to look the same it never works. Some of my best aquascaping has been done when the water is too cloudy to see I'm doing and I've been in a hurry to get the rock back in the water

you could always do what they did at my Dentist office they were renovating and they needed to move the 110gal. corner bow . So all the contractors got togeather and slid the tank on the strand full of water with all the rock and coral in it they pushed it about 30 feet down the hall to a back room. and then back again I could not believe it. I guess ignorance is bliss. If one of use tried that knowing what we know it would be a disaster.

Any way back to your move When I swapped tanks a few years ago I set up a stock tank in a room close to the tank put most of my water in it the all the fish and coral went in. I used a couple of rubber made totes to put all the rock in cover it with towels to keep it moist. this also helps as you still have your water to refill with.

Good luck
