I was just informed that on June 5th & 6th that the whole apartment
building is going to be tented for termites, and that I will have to move all of my fish, all 11 aquariums full,...Two 30, one 20, and eight 10 gallon aquariums. And I don't know what the heck I'm going to do. After talking to my brother yesterday about it, I condensed them all down to one 30 gallon aquarium for most the adult fish [including most of the female Bettas], and one ten gallon aquarium for all of the tiny fry, one ten gallon tank for a pregnant Betta, and two 10 gallon tanks for some other pregnant fish. Plus one gallon plastic storage containers for each of my four male Bettas, which would take up far less space than the 10 gallon tanks they were living in. But I don't know where I can place all of them for at least two or three days. My brother first said that he'd be coming over the next day and that he would come and move one of my now empty 30 gallon tanks that we would then fill up there at his house with treated water, and maybe one or two of the 10 gallon tanks,...but he said that he didn't think that we could fit all of those tanks in his small apartment for at least two or three days there. Well some things have happened where he couldn't come the next day, and now I have a much over- populated 30 gallon aquarium with 4 Whisper 20's running, the 10 gallon with the pregnant Betta, the two 10 gal. with the other pregnant fish, and the male Bettas, each still in their 10 gallon tanks, awaiting to be moved to my brother's apartment, which he says won't happen until Tuesday, May 30th. I know that all of this is very stressful on my fish. I don't know whether I should move them all back to their original tanks until Monday night, and then put them & I through all of the stress of me having to hunt them down and remove them with a net, or just leave them where they are until I put them in containers or bags to move them to my brother's place. And also, can I store them for the one to two hour trip to my brother's place in plastic air-tight [food storage] containers, or should I use bags like the ones that they use at pet stores? When fish are all jumbled together like they are now, and will be even more so for two or three days, what should I do and not do? Any help and or suggestions will be very much appreciated.~Dean. |
