NO thats not the way i was thinking .... i was planing to remove all the water just to leave like enough water for the fish to swim and leave the corals in the open for a while cuase were im moving in less than 15 minutes away from were i leave and thinking to have in the other place the new water just like a water change but at the same time ill have to do it really fast but before duing that im gonna see how heavy will be and if i think still to heave to do that kind of movement...... i would not have another choise than to take all apart put it in a fishies bucket or something like that and leave only like 10% of the water in tank just enough water for the fish and the LS it will be the same just a little bit more lighter cuause ill take all LR out and corals but still thinking how to do it. pictures will be posted later today.

Ed,
I have an advice for you... I've have to move my two nanocubes twice last year, and I would not recommend moving it with any water at all, even if you are moving 15 minutes away. I moved less than 5 minutes away from where I used to live, and I transferred my corals and fish to a Rubbermaid tub, and placed the LR in a few Home Depot 5 gallon buckets.
The only thing I left in the tank was the SB, with enough water just to slightly cover the bed. Especially with the nanocubes, I think it's better to be safe than sorry, and your fish should be fine in the tub, while the tank is not set up yet. I premixed 10 gallons of water a few days before, as you will need more water to fill all the containers.
