Aquariums on the move......
(Preview)
This is a serious query. I am about to start travelling in a campervan and want to take my small aquarium. Has anyone done this, if so what were the problems you encountered. Having lived in a unit I couldnt have cats or dogs so the fish are my pets and I dont want to give them away.
