This was a pretty interesting read although it doesn't help you move!

most colonies are rubberbanded to styrofoam at their base so they would float

The boxes that they ship in are usually filled from side to side with bags so there is little room for movement.

I don't think any lfs around here get too many if any colonies shipped to them. Mostly frags of sps. Maybe a few colonies of soft stuff but thats much easier. Instead of balloons try ziplock bags, they will be clean safe and more durable. I would break all the colonies off the rocks though it would be a huge pita to arrange the rock with colonies on it. Get some of the foam boxes from a lfs because it will be softer if a coral hits it in transport than a bucket would be. Good luck wit the move
