What happens here
With the water drained, prepare to remove the toilet tank. First, remove the two tank bolts that secure the tank to the toilet bowl. These bolts are typically accessed from underneath the toilet bowl. Use channel locks or a socket wrench to loosen and remove the nuts from these bolts. Once the nuts are off, the bolts can be pulled out from the top. For any remaining water in the tank after the fill valve is out, use a sponge to soak it up, ensuring the tank is completely dry before proceeding.
Goal: Separate the toilet tank from the bowl.
