How to transport 180 gallon glass tank from the basement upstairs?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I've notice these days that most young people don't exercise at all. Playing video games is all they do. I'm in my mid 50's and can drop down and give you 40 lol. All seriousness though don't won't anyone to drop a large aquarium. My 180 was no joke carrying down my basement with my brother and I.
I feel for the young people. They have the internet and so many games at their access its distracting and sad. I grew up playing outside and sports. But kids nowadays find it boring. Soon VR games will take over.
 
I’m planning to get back to the gym for moments like these. I hope to have many more in the not so distant future. This weekend I am helping out with a 300gal tank move. I suppose I should have asked if there would be more people as well.....
 
So my mom has a stone sculpture she insisted on having upstairs (crazy) it weighs over 300lbs and took five people to move it from house to house because it was oddly oval shaped.

The new mover who moved it upstairs with only 2 extra people used a floor jack (like for cars) and lifting straps to move up step by step.

My mom said they put the jack upstairs and step by step it went.
