Moving Tank.

[techen]

Hey all, I have a 60L tank with 6 rainbows and 6 corys in it. Am removing the tank and taking it to my LFS for drilling (Marine drilling for sump etc)
 
I was wondering if the 6 corys would be okay in my 200L tank?
 
Stock in the 200L is 
 
10 Congo Tetras
2 Pearls
2 German rams
2 BN plecos.
 
Any ideas would be great.

i dont see a problem with that for a short amount of time,
 
depending on where you live it might be cheaper to call somebody to your house to drill it,
 
i hope its not tempered glass is it?

They drill and fit PVC all the time. So it will be fine, Am speaking about having the corys in there forever as once the tank has been drilled it will be a marine set up and no longer a FW.
 
I'll sell the rainbows on though as my tetras will end up eating them.

oh yeah, forgot you said marine,
 
i dont see a problem with the corys in that tank, i would put them in if it was my tank,
 
they might drill tanks all the time, but they dont drill tempered tanks all the time, it will shatter into a million pieces

Hence why am doing it at the LFS I bought the fish tank from. If they break it, They'll replace it.
 
I'll add my corys to my 200L tank then. That's fine.

they wont break it....if they know what they are doing they will refuse to drill it,
 
thats why im suggesting you find out if the tank is tempered before you go through the hassle of bringing it there

Am not fussed at all, They didn't refuse it is why am going! Rofl. Like I said, If it cracks/smashes while they drill it they replace it. Simple.
