Gone Sump Leaking- All Livestock Must Go!!!

Like the title says, found a leak in my sump on my 180 tonight and since the stand was built around it, I have to cut it out. I'm devistated. All fish must go. Currently have:
8" koran angel
5" regal angel- yellow belly
4" semilarvatus butterfly
4" lavender tang
3" Meyers wrasse
3" flame angel
2" pakistani butterfly
Pair of DaVinci clowns

Have had all fish for 2+ years. Happy and healthy. Absolutely hate to let them go. I need them gone and I know I need to post a price, so $1 each.
 
Would it be possible to stabilize the fish in the tank with heat and circulation, drain and repair the sump? Is the sump acrylic? Could weld the seam and repair after draining and drying it
 
Do you have Rubbermaid bins you could transfer the fish and corals to with some heaters and powerheads while you drain tank to get the sump out and replace? I’ve used the large rubbermaids for temp holding tanks several times with no issue.
 
Thank you to everyone that reached out for suggestions and advice. I was able to make a hasty functional sump out of a 40 gal tank and just got it running again. Looks like my fish can stay after all!
As much as I wanted your Regal, I am glad to hear everything is back in order!
 
I hacked together this at midnight from a 40gal I had in the basement. If anybody has a decent sump, I'm interested haha

Hi, I’m interested in flame angel and Meyers wrasse. Please confirm the total price. Thank you.
