mo is good for it

but a 40G tank isn't really that heavy,i move the 45 that my legless lizard is in all the time

yea, its not the tank, its the contents. Wet co-cobark, driftwood, water, LECA, plants not srue how much, but heavy

Take 50%+ of the water out. Would that work? Even with half the water gone that would still put you at around 200lbs(est). But 100lbs on one side with 2 people on it is possible. Aquarium dealers have special suction tools to help lift and pull aquariums as well. Maybe they will let you borrow it? GL.

never though of the water,lol,guess thats y you should read all the info

 

[pumbus]

well how did the move go

 

[viciousconvict]

it's not full of water. The water is only in the bottom. approx. 10-15 gallons approx 80-120lb
