What to do?

My family announced we are moving to Europe next year, which I am very excited about. The only problem is this is very unexpected, and I've invested maybe 100-200 dollars in fish this year. (just the fish, not equipment.) I also got a 75 and a 40. The 40 is setup as a grow out tank right now, and the 75 is down. We don't know how many years we are going to be in Europe. We are renting out our current house for the duration of our time there. My mom and dad told me they would get me a tank there, which is great, as I have heard they are much more expensive in Europe. I don't know how big. My mom and dad also said they would contact the American embassy, and see if I could bring my fish. Right now I have 9 peaock cichlids, and 2 BP's. I also go to my grandma's house in LI for the summer, But I'm allowed to bring a tank. So here are my concerns.

Should I setup my 75? (Keep in mind I will go to my grandmas in June for the summer)

Should I bring my 75 or the 40 to my grandmother's house? It would remain there until we get back from Portugal.

Is the best plan of action to sell most of my Africans? I am definitely considering this. Because I'm not sure what size tank I will have in Europe like I said

We are moving in September.

I also don't have a stand that can support the 75 at my grandma's.
 
Just like I feared, aquariums are MUCH more expensive. A 55 gallon is like 180 US dollars +. On the bright side, fish seem to be MUCH less expensive then here. Like a pair of appistos going for 10 euros, and rays for 159 euros
 
Sell all your fish and tanks. Store your fish equipment at your grandmother's house. If your grandmother ever has to move your tanks, you don't know what condition it may be in by the time you get back. Save your grandmother the trouble of getting people to move it and sell the tanks before you leave.

She's in new Zealand most of the time which is why we use the house during the summer. I think I may go with your advice
