Tank move volunteers - yyc :)

[Buccaneer]

Hello fellow Canreefers! Some may remember me from a few years ago. :cool:

I used to have a inwall 330G tank but moved houses and fell out of the hobby.

I am back and found a great deal on a 240G that will also be going inwall.

It will need 4 guys to lift it and so far I have one volunteer Tony (Delphinus) so just need a couple more.

There will be beer, pizza or whatever volunteers eat or drink :biggrin:

The weather is a bit cool this weekend but should break by wednesday so looking at thusday or friday evening or the weekend.

Of course the more the merrier

So to update the tank is located in Ranchlands and I live just off dunbow rd which is a few clicks south of Legacy in the south end of the city :wink:

I can lend a hand (possibly two if there's sufficient incentive) if it is the weekend. :biggrin:

So thank you Nate, Dustin and Ryan for helping to hoist that tank out of Nate's basement ... that is one heavy SOB :lol:

[westreefmang]

Yeah it is happy to lend a hand looking forward to seeing what it looks like come the new year :)

[Buccaneer]

OK fellas ... it has been a long haul but almost there :)

Took tank to Concept and they moved the over flow from a center internal to a side external

They loaded it up in my truck and I had a few of my daughters friends help move into the basement (but they are back at University now)

Got stand installed in the wall and exact dimensions cut in drywall to install tank which is sitting on the floor in front of the hole in the wall

Looking for 3 volunteers to help lift the tank into the wall ... take one minute max :lol:

[Buccaneer]

Nobody want to put their back out lifting a tank? :lol:

[Treebeard]

I would gladly help but it's a bit of a haul in from Strathmore.
Nice looking tank. Looking forward to seeing it in place fully stocked. What are your plans?
Good luck!

[Delphinus]

I could help, when are you wanting to do this?

[Buccaneer]

Hey T ... as soon as we can get 2 more ... need four for sure or 2 body builders :biggrin:
