Dropped a 265

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Bringing this one back from the grave. Last weekend I had to find a reason to get my parents up from Louisville so to tell them my wife is having a baby so why not have them move a tank as well. I made a dolly out of 2x4s the size of the tank like I planned. It made moving it a snap and I highly recommend it with a little extra room to use as handles. I know some have said it won't work but others have given me the confidence I need to at least give it a try. With the new baby my wife won't go for me getting a new tank when this one failed. I silicones it a couple days ago when it was warm and going to test fill tomorrow. If this doesn't work ill have to sell as a reptile tank and wait a few years. On a bright note at that point there us no limit from her as long as it is in the basement. I'm thinking something similar to the 750 on glasscages. Time will tell I guess but I have high hopes and a garage that tracks of silicone again.
 
Good luck, hope all goes well. Then again a no size limit tank in the near future sounds promising too. If I only had a basement.
 
Good to hear you are still at it.
 
That’s a great deal for a 100. I already have a 125 gall rbp tank and love it but I was needing something bigger. Is your river tank native? My 125 was before I went on my honeymoon to Hawaii and the power went off and my AC died causing the house to be 90 degrease with no water flow suffocating all but the pleco I had in there. When I get my new tank in new house that is what I'm going to do with the 220. It is filled now in the garage with no problems so I will let it sit for a while. I think the main difference is the dolly I made that I will post pictures once I find out how to use my wife’s camera. That will keep additional stress from the tank being moved to a minimum since the weight will be distributed throughout.
