Filled weight is not an issue but I was wondering if me and my neighbor would be able to lift it but like I said I am gonna pay the $10 more and have them do it.

If it is a Marineland it should weigh 160 pounds, according to the manufacturer. They really aren't hard to move, but for $10 I think you're smart to have them deliver. Plus, if they break the tank it is their responsibility.

light weight mean the glasses aren't really thick and not really good on keeping big fishes !Dan F;5029040; said:

That may be true, but 3/8" is pretty much the standard for this sized tank these days. Aqueon/All-Glass and Marineland are by far the largest U.S. manufacturers and neither one steps up to 1/2" until you get into tanks taller than 24".
I'm not saying that thicker glass isn't a good thing, just giving the O.P. a more accurate idea of what a 125 weighs.
I realize the problem has been solved, but here are two links to some helpful calculators:

Kind wasteful posting helpful links in a dead thread. Why not post these links in their own thread?
