UPDATE:
Moved 3 of the 4 tanks worth of sand, rocks, and critters so far and I hope to have the 4th and final tank moved no later than this weekend. Tanks are a bit cloudy from all the silt in the sand so no picture updates yet. Spent 4 hours last night moving the 2 smallest tanks over. Will take another night to clean them out and moved to the garage.
Sump has so much water running through it that I had to ditch the idea of having a refugium area in there. Total flow is estimated at 4500 GPH and the current in there is very strong.
Sump room is also much warmer than expected with a huge amount of humidity. Will have to consider using a dehumidifier in there or try keeping the door open.
On the leaking tanks I added them up and I was off a bit, so perhaps a bit over stated. Of the 8 glass tanks in the past 10 years all of which were new except the All Glass (which is my last tank in the move) 4 Oceanics & 3 Perfectos all failed. All were covered under warranty and were swapped out. I know I have the worst luck. It's really funny cause if it wasn't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all. lol
