It took 4 guys but we made it!

I feel your pain on that. I had to muscle my 210G glass tank off the stand and into the truck by myself. 1/2 Inch glass isn't very kind on your back! Not to mention I found two guys to help me get it up the stairs oand onto the stand. We planned on beer but none of us felt like drinking after that ordeal! Well worth it though. Congatulations.
Nice tank, pics when it has fishes!
Not sure why 4 guys were needed - I hired two guys considerably smaller than myself who had no problems with a 220 gallon glass in a basement and narrow doorway. A pain in the arse overall if i was to do it - but they handled it effortlessly. Well worth the few dollars -
LOL must be the beefheart recipe!Sunpoe said:Dear GOD
What do you EAT. You must be unnatually strong!!
I'm 6foot and 280 and wouldn't even attempt that...
BTW nice tank sunpoe
just wait unitl you have to carry that one back up and a 240 downSunpoe said:It took four of us and cost me some beer but the 180 got down a steep set of stairs on to its heft stand in one piece and this was all for the love of one silver aro.
Only thing that sucks is that I am going to have to up grade to something that is even heavier and bigger in the not so distant future

I don't want anyone to hurt themselves needlessly. I've been lifting a long time. And, even though I can't lift what I could 20+ years ago, I can still leg press 750lbs, dead lift 525lbs, and flex lift 400lbs. But, I can only lift and shoulder 200lbs. I hate getting older but, it sure beats the alternative. I'm 6' 4" and waver between 245lbs and 255lbs depending on how well the fridge is stocked.
