I will soon be moving from a 37g tank to a 90g. Anyone have any suggestions or tips to make that transition a little easier on the fish, rock, etc?

Have extra salt water ready
if possible have the 90g cycled before the change
If you are going to add live rock do it while the 90g is cycling, and then add what you have in the 37gal when you move
Have a couple big trash cans or large rubber buckets to put corals, fish and live rock in while your positioning rocks and stuff in the new tank
Make sure you don't leave things in the bucket too long without water flow/heat
Leave the lights off on the new tank after you finish the move, give a day for the fish stress to go down
