[five.five-six]

I’m thinking 9:00AM. In Corona.

The plan is to drain my 135 most of the way, move it over a few feet and refill it


Then bring the 225 in from the garage.

I’ll do the rest over the course of the next week

Should be done in under 2 hrs, could be 1 hr if I have everythign set in advance

My wife will make pancakes and french toast and if you want beer, I’ll Have some beer for you.

Hope you were able to move it, didn’t see any reply’s and I just now saw this post. If you haven’t and your moving the tank with stand I suggest using sliders for furniture, they make em for carpet and hard floors. That’s what I used and I moved my 120g tank 10ft by myself (my wife helped place sliders).Just drain like you mentioned and you will need one other person to place sliders at corners while you lift, once in place it’s easy to push it.

The move is a week from today. I have 3-4 people already. 4 is the minimum, 5-6 would be great.

Ah ok, I might be able to help then.

Bump, I only have 2 people committed, I really need 4 at least.

I will make it as fast as possible, just lift and move, I have help for everything else.


Really should be done in well under an hour.

Looks like it may rain, who’s up for powering through it?

I’m in. Shouldn’t make too much difference.

12 people showed up!

As hard as I worked on prepping and trying to make it go smooth, it still took almost 3 hrs

I would like to than everyone individually and I will in the build thread,

There were a lot of individual contributions from muscle to makeing sure the fish were ok to simply mixing saltwater that was needed to shareing experiance and ideas on how to do things better safer faster. I learned a lot.



Everyone came together to pitch in, Im exhausted but it was a really great time

Thank you!!

Glad to hear you had such a great turn out and it all went smooth! Wish I could have committed as well but the wifey had other plans. It is great to know we have a club full of great people!
