Where are moving to and from? What kind, number, and size of fish?

I see an arowana and some pacu in his personal gallery...
eek!

Wouldn't shipping the fish or checking them as baggage on a flight be simpler, safer, and cheaper?

I was thinking that in the beginning but I figured he had no way to do it that way.

We have a similar transport arangement for our fish but we're using air driven Hydro5 sponge filters in each of the corners.... Even if your containers not going to be filled to the top your still looking at 150 gallons.... About 1700 lbs or so...thats a bit much for a full sized bronco to haul around safely...not to mention what that much inertia's going to want to do. At the very least...do a complete brake job before you leave and another one as soon as you get there.

I currently work as a senior master tech at a ford dealer, as for the truck, rebuilt full boogie 5.0 HO, T-19 trans and 9in rear end with heavyduty springs. As for the fish, 2 very large pacus, 2 arowanas, 2 green chromides, 2 tinfoil barbs and a number of differernt plecos along with 2 FRTs
