If it aint 200 gallons or bigger you better park it!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I'm in the process of setting up a 770 gallon (10'Lx3'Wx4'H) with a 150 gallon sump (72"x24"x20"). A pic of the move and a full tank shot (I love how the tank makes that 5 gallon bucket in the pic look like a thimble)

You moved that tank with 3 guys total? That sounds risky. How thick is the acrylic? Post some pix of it, even if it's empty!

We had 12 guys to move the tank (technically we had 16 to load it into the truck, but only 12 people helped). The acrylic is 1.25" thick...tank weighs over 1,100 lbs empty. Not sure if I was lifting more than the others, but I was shocked at how heavy it felt (and I'm not a weak dude).
 
i really did only have 3 guys. took us about 3 hours to move it from the apartment to the trailer.

1 inch acrylic all around.

Just got water in the 400 gallon tall tank, dimensions are 75"x24"x56". Going to be putting in a bunch of leptosomas in there once it is cycled.
