Well it’s official, I’ve purchased a house and will be preparing to move in September/October. Now the daunting task of moving 5 aquariums and 100 fish haha
MOVING! ?
- Thread starter Niki_up
- Start date
Congrats! Few feelings are better than that which comes from owning after renting. 
How far is the move going to be? Might be easier to just sell/give all your livestock away and then start from scratch in your new digs. Or at least try to work it so that you take possession at least a few days before having to move out of your current place, so you can more easily move all your stuff.
Are you moving to the country, or to the city? Hopefully the former; it would be a crying shame if you had to start doing water changes fully clothed...
. And it's very liberating to have your own well and water supply, no chlorine to fret about, and "free" water...well, it's free after you pay for the pump, pressure tank, plumbing, and of course the electricity to run it...but it's really easy to convince yourself that it's free!

Thanks! I’m stoked honestly as this is pretty much the only thing I’ve been after for quite some time.Congrats! Few feelings are better than that which comes from owning after renting.

it’s almost my dream house, it’s a 1974 bungalow ?
it’s only 30 mins from where I currently live so I get to keep my job and my fish. We won’t have many things to move as we are selling most things hinges before we go and starting fresh.
it’s not quite the county and not quite a city…more of a small town. We will be in town water supply so no we’ll either.
Hahah re the clothing situation, as I’m sure everyone is clamouring to know ???
I currently live in a large city that’s way populated, if that couldn’t keep my pants on for a water change then neither willa small town ? get all your drones now though bc my back yard is pretty private and I plant to sneak in topless sunbathing ?
the only disadvantage I can see as of now is there’s no aquarium life or people there…once I move there I will be top tier aquarists in town ? maybe this will be an opportunity to suppliers some of my breeding fish.
Congrats Nik, I'm made up for you.
Keep this thread up to date, I'll be following, hopefully it'll all be good news along the journey, and no set backs!
Also glad to hear you're not aborting your minimally clad clothing policy whilst doing water changes at your new house! And on that subject....
Does anyone know where I can get a drone with a 4000 mile range!!!
