If you set it up now and start cycling, it would be ready in 4-6 weeks for life. If you don't add any life, the move back to school would be MUCH easier, but it would be advisable to keep the rock submerged as much as possible. You could use sealable rubbermaid containers for that. If you have corals or fish, it becomes a bit more complicated, but not impossible.
And most importantly, Welcome to RS![/QUOTE]
I might try that! I'm going to think about it and see how easy it will be and how much car space I am going to have. If I do end up cycling the tank now...thats all it would be. I wouldn't put any life into it because it's my first saltwater tank and I wanna make sure everything is perfect.

That is definitely a hard call.
When I bought my 30g used, it was all setup.
I put everything in 5g buckets, covered in water.
Drained the water down to just above the sand level and moved it that way.
Was cloudy overnight, but didn't loose a thing.
I say go for it. |
How long where they in the buckets for?
And thanks everyone for the pre-birthday wishes!!
