    the vermont move was successful!

    moved from michigan to vermont on the 5th of this month. put everyone in some 5 gallon buckets, put them in the car and left the car at 75 degrees. EVERYONE made it!

    Glad everything turned out all right Nick. I know that must have been quite a challenge. I know you have to make your new home inhabitable...... but have you got a chance to set the tank up to cycle? I know moving everything weighed heavily on your mind.

    Where in VT are you? If you are somewhat "south", you should try to make a Boston Reefers meeting.

    Boyes actually moved about 5 minutes from me. I'm looking forward to meeting him in person at some point.

    I may even try to get him to help me when I move my 180 (my friend just bought). A project I'm really not looking forward to!
