Tank Moving Help Needed

[mcox33]

Hey everyone,

I have a old 125 gallon tank that I need to move. I need some help so if any of you are willing to help let me know.

Just so you know it is now at the old Californian Restraunt and I need to move it to Nitro.

It is very old (I think) the glass is really thick and the tank has no center brace, I am pretty sure it never did.

If you can and are willing to help me move it, please let me know as I need to move it as soon as possible so I can give the key back to the owner.

Thanks
Mary

We have a truck, if there are some willing men to help my hubby, we could get it moved Wed. Thur. evening, perhaps anytime Friday (he is off on Fridays but I am not sure if he has plans) Where do you want it moved to? At your shop?

 

[mcox33]

We also have a truck so with 2 we can get the tank and stand in one trip.

No for some more muscle, and to figure out the best time for everyone who can help. We can move it at any time that is convient for everyone.


Yes, it is going to the shop.

Hey Nancy and Jim thanks for the help.

Thanks Philip even though the other guys didn't wait for you. They found a dolly and wheeled the tank out to the truck. It worked great.

Youre more than welcome Mary

Mary, that is a 150 gallon made of 1/2 inch thick glass (hence the absence of a center brace) and it weighs around 230 lbs empty. I have one identical to it I'm working on. Just thought you would like to know.

You will need at least 4 people to move it and if you can round up a scooter or two with swivel castors it will help immensely.

I thought that looked bigger than a 125. That would be nice as an "in the wall" tank Mary. Let me know if you ever want to sell it, I want to put one in the wall.
