Prepare the move
For a short move, use a clean, secure container with aquarium water and enough air space. Keep shrimp out of the filter and hardscape, and protect the container from heat or cold.
Do not lift a glass aquarium while full; water and substrate can strain seams. Keep biological filter media submerged or damp in aquarium water so it does not dry out.
Reassemble and monitor
Set the aquarium on a level surface, refill with temperature-matched water, and restart the filter. Check that flow is normal and watch the colony closely over the next day.
Test ammonia and nitrite if the move was lengthy or the filter stopped for an extended time. Feed lightly until the system is clearly stable again.
For your own tank
Plan the move so the filter is out of service for as little time as practical. Keep media wet, prevent temperature extremes in the transport container, and avoid feeding immediately before travel. After setup, observe the tank before returning to a normal feeding routine.
