My wife and I are moving and our tank is coming with us.

I think I have this sorted.  Empty the tank, fish go into bags, everything 
else, well that gets packed (probably in buckets).  Save half of the water. 
Relocate everything.  Get the substrate, then plants, filter and suchlike 
back into the tank...  all good fun really (not, it's a 200 litre tank)...

How well will the biological filter cope with being shut off for a few 
hours?  Am I likely to have water quality issues post-move?

Any other pointers to consider?
