You must have brain damage if you are unhappy that you don't "get" to go with us.... :ROFL:
 
i wish i could go, jus so i could have the experience of moving such a large large tank for future reference.

all i can think of, is if you want a big big tank, build it where u want it.

Definitely, there's no questioning that. :nilly: I just want to feel the satisfaction of seeing that giant thing moving out the door.
 
I wanted to let you know where I am on this..... I decided that since the lull I need to put this into my fish room is 660 + tax a day that I'm going to build a special trailer just to move and load the tank into my fish room.

I can build the trailer in half a day and it will cost around 250.00 so it makes the most sense.

The new target for the move will be Sat the 19th..... maybe Friday the 18th.

Lets see so far this $1400 tank has cost.....

1400 - tank
250 - truck and trailer rental the first time
50 - gas
100 - wheels
50 - steel
1200 - pump, air pump misc.
250 - air ducts

plus the stuff for this time.

250 - fork lift rental
250 - to build the trailer
200 - steel and sand to build the stand
50 - gas

And to set it up

175 - 1500 pounds of aqaurium gravel
200 - misc plumbing

+ what ever I haven't thought of..... like decorations

4425.00 so far..... man Please don't let my wife see this
