My new tank is done!!

[JB NY]

woohooo! My new tank should be here at the end of the week. Too bad NERAC is this weekend. :lol:

Anyway wondering if I can get some volunteers to help with moving my tank into the house in a few weeks. Again my wife has banned me from moving the tank due to three herniated disks (stupid back!). Hopefully this time I should have the area prepped better for tank moving. I'm going to see if I can rent those heavy duty suction cups to make holding the tank easier.

Oh yeah I also have a tank build thread going on in the large tank section.

270 gallon SPS tank for JBNY

I actually have a suction cup handle you could borrow, and i don't how far you live, but if i happen to have nothing to do that day i could lend a hand. let me know.

......just post up a day when when you know the delivery date and I should be able to make along with the LIRA Moving Co....should be alot easier than Tony's and John's 400+ tanks...

sorry, cant help with the moving, but are you going BB or DSB?

 

[chemisfun11]

Where are you located? I'd be happy to lend a hand if I can.

I would love to help but I am in the same boat as you are.... 3 Herniated disks

 

[JB NY]

Awesome guys. I'll let you know when I need the help. Scott, That would be great if I could borrow the suction cup!

teen I think I am going to go BB this time.

Mike, yeah it's only a 270. When I asked the guy at the tank shop about moving it, he was like "It's just a little tank you should have no problem moving it with 4 or 5 people." I asked him what he thought a big tank was, and he said 700-1000 gallons.

I'll see your 3 discs and raise you one hernia...

Get us a date Joe, later in the day on a weekend or evening during the week works better for me, but we'll make it work either way.

Right now I'm thinking Saturday March 24th in the late afternoon might be good. But I'll let you know. I'm sure I'll talk with some of you this weekend anyway.

I can lend a hand as well, given enough notice. I live in the area.

I'll try to keep that day open for you, Joe.

Joe, if I can be there, I will. Add me to your list and just PM me with the details.

A side note, your Hippo tang is getting huge in my tank, I call him fatty.
Also, remember that Yellow Monti with the purple polyps? I have it and its growing, slowly. Ill also have that Monti Confusa for you from Brian. It's turned Purple, Yellow and Green!
