Tank Move

[Night61]

well it finally happened i own a 20 gallon tank. i am still in the process of buying new exuipment for it filter heater hood and bottom covering.
i just need some advice, the filter and the biofiber are in the process of being clones both in the 10 gallon absorbing what they need too. the question for be becomes how to i easily trassfer fish with minimum stress. i know some of the old tank water should come over. i just need some advice help if you can with suggestions on how you did it.
note the 20 is going in the same spot the 10 is.

you can empty the entire 10 gallon except for the last bucket, where you put the fish and float the bio-wheel. then remove the 10 gallon and set up the 20 gallon.

if you have another bucket, fill 1/2 of the 20 gallon with dechlorinated tap water of approximately the same temp as the old water. then net the fish in the bucket into the 20.

after that, pour the old water in the bucket into the 20 (you can skip this part if you want). then fill the 20 up with more dechlorinated tap water.
