That was an absolute joke!

Moving tanks under 600 gallon is seriously not that hard if you plan ahead.

If you can....get all of your big tanks built inside your house...then its just one easy lift onto the stand

Now thats thinking

makes you wonder how they got it in there in the first place

Exactly, acrylic isn't that heavy. I hope I never end up buying a used tank that took that much abuse.

Guy holding the stand on the right side of the tank wasn't really much help... should have helped lift support the middle right side of the tank. That's the whole reason why the tank smashed onto the stand.

This is an acrylic tank, but as u can see still took quite a few heads to move.

The weight of this tank I beleive, much heavier than usual normal standard acrylic tanks?!!
