RE: Water Transportation
Do you know if any camping supplies / outdoor centre type of place stock
anything ?
I was in our local CCC the other day and they had some water butts ... but
the capacity I'm unsure of ..

When I have had to move tanks only a few feet this is what
I've done.=20
The water is syphoned into a BIG water butt until there is
just enough=20
left for the fish. After the tanks are moved the water is
pumped back=20
into the tanks (pond pump) with me having 4x25l on standby
as, 1) The=20
butt isn't quite big enough, 2) I don't want to have to use
dirty water=20
from the bottom.
