We all know that monster tanks are heavy. Even acrylic ones are heavy if big enough. How did you get your monstrous tanks inside the house? Care to share some tips, techniques , or reflections on how you got those big boys in?

I knew a guy that had his 480 lowered into his house before the put the trusses in... the couple that bought it didn't like it and broke it to get it out...
my tank was a perfect fit
it was like those toys where you push the shape through the hole of that shape
just on a gigantic scale

they had to crane it above the house.

same here, it was 24 inches high so we were able to bring it into the room sideways. door frame was 30 inches wide, so it was a tight fit
