So if I did that and had all my sps exposed to air for say 20-30 minutes that wudnt hurt anything? It does sound a lot easier then what iv been dealing with. Just don't want to effect anything else in the process.

I've drained my current tank 3 times in the last year. Average time is about 30 minutes, but see my moving adventure above!

Your SPS will be fine exposed to air for half an hour. You can mist them down if you get nervous.

What I did once with a big green wrasse was put a piece of PVC pipe vertically in the tank.. The bottom end plugged.. Fill it within a couple of inches with sand. The wrasse being curious would go in during the day and bury himself in it at night.. While he was buried just pick up the pipe
