Going from small to larger reptiles

[Snagrio]

Aquarium upgrades are incredibly ambitious even going from a 20 to a 29 for me was a huge deal. When we upgraded to our current 45 (which my wife and I agreed was as big as we were going to go) that took an entire day, and that's not counting the week of substrate prep, purchases live plants, etc etc. That's also the reason I downgraded from three aquariums to one.

You're telling me. Took an entire day moving the 125 from the original owner's place to mine (was also a 4 hour's drive round trip on top of that) and it came with several big cichlids so everything had to be done quickly and reassembled right after getting home. Gonna have to rehome them all though as they're both incompatible with most of my existing fish and will destroy any live plants I attempt to add.
