paino dollys are your best friend when it comes to moving tanks around the house..
 
believe it or not a piece of carpet is great for sliding big tanks around on a cement floor..well for me anyway as for getting it in the house take your time and have enough hands
 
We used some of those sliding furniture moving disk things to move my 210 and 300 around, it made life much easier. Other than that buy some beer and call up some friends. I recomend consuming the beer after the tank is in place though. ;)

Then again, you look like you could almost handle moving it by yourself. ;)
 
big suction cups. they make lite work of these things from my experience moving my 3ft tall 150G tank. it took 5 of us to get it out of the house I got it from and with the suction cups 2 of us moved it into my house. it was very heavy but it was alot easier than without them.
