musical tanks

So I am painting and re-carpeting my computer\fish room. SO, I need move my
tank into another room for about 6 or 7 days then back again. It is a 20
gallon and generally healthy. Does anyone have any advice on moving it?

Due to the size I think I need to take most of the water out so I should I
take out the fish too and store them in a bucket of the tank water then put
it all back? Or....something else?

Thanks Kelly

Nope, sounds like you got it covered. Although I'd not bother
saving much of the old water, just whatever sized bucket you
use to transport the fish. Fill the tank with treated
fresh water + the bucket and call it a 75% PWC.

move fish to bucket of water with airstone. drain tank completely, move, fill, aerate
an hour and move fish back in. Ingrid
