Nubee - 1000 gal how to put on stand?

[ettfettbranamn]

10 tones??? 100 gallons should equal 370kg since 1 gallon equals about 3,7 Litres and one litre is exactly 1kg.. I get the weight to 3700 kg = 3.7 tones.

nevermind! FARK that is a big acrylic tank! welcome!!

oh.. btw.. 8 guys should be able to lift it but how will you fit it through doors??

Yeah, the door thing seems like the harder part to me, I know i dont have any 4ft doorways in my house. Although I'm sure you've got that art figured out, and I'm sure you knw your place better than we/I do.

Its going in the garage. It wouldn't fit thru any doors. I was guessing more like 4 to 5 tons, 8lb gallon = 4 tons, maybe 1 ton for tank and stand? Concrete floor should be ok.

Price wise, I could have got it cheaper, but some "artist" kept bidding it up, I asked him after the auction why he wanted it, he was going to cut it up and make a scuplture. I ended up having to give $140.00 Which i think is still a bargin, but not the $75 that I almost had it for.

3.7kg = 8.2lbs
3700kg = 8200lbs
8200lbs = 4+ tons

450gal 96 x 30 x 36 cost $4095 new ... so you do the math on what kind of a deal you got ..

I'm paying 200$ for a 75 gallon...

For stand, I'd say it's big enough for the ground to be a stand. After all, you can't break the ground very easily

For stock, I say GO CRAZY . It's your tank, and it's freaking huge at that. You could go with an RTC and a couple pacus.

I FU@%ING HATE YOU DUDE. I would NEVER find a deal like that. That is like buying a brand new Corvette for $1000.

I will buy it from you for $280. I will come get it and you don't have to worry about putting it on the stand. Seriously, PM me if you want to work something out.
