If you’re moving a fish tank, there are a few things to bear in mind to ensure it arrives safely at your new home. UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of Greater Lehigh Valley can assist you in ensuring that your fish tank arrives in good condition at its new location. Follow these six easy steps:

1. If you’re moving a tank, be sure it’s completely dry. Remove any water and foreign objects from the aquarium as well.

2. Dry the tank and all of its contents. Once the tank is empty, make sure to dry it out completely. This will help prevent any bacteria from growing.

3. Remove all of the tank’s equipment before moving it. Remove any filters, heaters, or other devices from the tank before transporting it.

4. Wrap the tank in a moving blanket to keep it safe from bumps and scratches.

5. Remember to handle the aquarium with care. When moving the tank, use a traveling blanket to avoid dropping it.

6. Once you’ve brought the tank to your new home and reconnected all of the equipment, assemble it in place and set up the tank. Before filling it with water, make sure there are no leaks.

Follow these six steps to safely move your fish tank, and you’ll be good to go! Check out the UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of Greater Lehigh Valley blog for more moving tips and advice.
