On Saturday Victor and supreme being JAMIE finished up all the plumbing adjustments for the tank. Yesterday (Sunday) we decided to "just do it"!
And so right around noon we started the transfer. Moving all the rock and sand out of the 170 and into the new pimp 150!

Here is the 55g that we placed some rock and all the livestock into:

Here is the 110g tall that we put all the rock into:

Here is the inside of the 170g, almost empty:
