Sigh - no, the "ready" water is the water that I prepared in the new tank. I figure that I need about 170 gallons if I keep about 70 galons from the old tank. So the question is, does the bathtub hold 170 gallons

OOOHHH - now I really think I am having a brain fart.  I'll see it when you do it, then I'll get it.

You are being soooo careful! Are you using IO? I know this sounds
bad, but when I move a tank or do a water change, I don't let the
water sit for a day like some say you must. I don't even wait for the
temp to be the same! As soon as the water is clear (ish), it goes in! I
figure if you siphon it in, the water warms slightly in the tubiing and
mixes with the old water slow enough.....

I've never noticed anybody upset,except for the corals at the top of
the tank who just went through a tide going out for a half hour!

Why not just add new IO water one 5 gallon bucket at a time?
