Tank Upgrade Help

[isgon26]

I am going to purchase Tim's 325 gallon tank. I am looking to pick up this tank this weekend if the weather holds up. I need 6-10 people to help move this tank. I have a cargo van so just need some strong backs.lol Let me know if anyone is interested. I will also be asking for suggestion on setting this tank up. Also will need help plumbing it up. Lunch and beers are on me!

I can't pick up my 2" Oscar right now with my bad foot

But..........if it helps I have the blankets that they use in the elevators ..you can put them in the van floor and walls..LMK

Those suction cups will not hold this tank.

Given some more info (which day, what time, etc) and a ride to and from Manhattan, you can possibly count me in Always a pleasure to be part of something larger than myself, and I'm only 6'2"

Times are not set yet. We are waiting for the weather report and waiting to see if the snow in Tim's backyard melts so I can pull my van to the back yard. I would like to do it sunday in the afternoon. I will provide more info as soon as it comes.

 

[isgon26]

I can pass by to pick it up also. Let me know when is best for you.

Kool....give me a call and I'll bring them to you.

Tito... if you can possibly wait till after a particular meeting.... can't say before I get banned also... LOL(pathetic)! We can all try and help you out. Would have to be after 4pm. You know.

I'm already obligated to help another member help move their tank otherwise I'd help out. Good luck with the move Tito.

Anyone have any suggestions on the plumbing and return pump?
