Default lost 2 friends :(

I did my move from the 55g to my new 120 last night, put my fishies in a tuperware tub, with a heater. decided to leave them in overnight while the sand settled in the 120. this morning i looked in the tub and my little naso tang was dead and my little unicorn tang was dying. I put the uni in a small tank and it looked like he was gonna pull through, unfortunately, he just died

woops - did you have a bubbler or powerhead in there with the heater?

no water movement = no oxygen

sorry to hear that.

I also put a lid on it with only 2" opening. that probably conytributed to low oxygen as well.
