Default Transporting a 29g Reef Tank

Guys I need your advice transporting a 29g Biocube reef tank.
I planned to use a few 5gal buckets to transport all the coral.
I have xtra water already prepared for the setup. Looking for advice on
what to avoid and anything that would help make the move easier for the coral. its only a 15-20min trip.

put heat packs taped to the bottom of the lids in the 5 gal buckets and when you get home put some small power heads in to help move the water. hope that helps you

Not sure what you have for substrate but if you have more than 3 inches try not to disturb the sand bed.
