I'm looking for the following;

- A kiddy pool, mostly I'm looking for where I can buy one. Ideas, suggestions?

- Styrofoam boxes

- More buckets, I will write your name on them and return them clean on the Monday or maybe even the Sunday.

- People to help lift our tank and sump onto a truck, and then again off the truck and into a basement.

Compensation usually includes beer, non-alcoholic beverages, pizza, and sometimes other foods. However if you're "donating" to the cause for a couple of days there may be bags of frozen fish food to be had.

You could check canadian tire for a kiddy pool. Thats were I got one from a few years ago when I needed a place for my koi. Not sure what they'll have this time of year though.

Catherine, good to hear you guys got the place(let the build begin?). I can offer up both. I have a few buckets, some rubbermaid tubs, coolers, also may have a couple spare power heads and heaters if you need them. Depending when exactly the big push will be made I may be able to help with moving the tank. Let me know.

Doug.

If I'm around that weekend (might not be though, not sure yet), I'll help with the move. Have a couple buckets I can set you up with too.

If nothing comes up that weekend I can help provide labor in moving the stuff.

You guys all rock!

We will find out this coming Friday if the house has passed inspection, and the sale goes ahead as planned.

We anticipate starting the planning on the next tank ASAP. However the start date of actual work is up in the air. The property we've bought has a different shape then we anticipated when we started our house hunt. So we may be going for an "L-shape" system. There was a previous house that we missed out on that would have allowed us a tank of 15 ft long, and 4 feet deep, but we missed, so it wasn't meant to be.

Anyways, so for people who can maybe help. Kevin, Krazykuch, is probably going to be in charge of all the actual moving. The actual tank move will most likely happen on Sunday afternoon, but could happen as early as Saturday evening.

I will get in touch with everyone whose offered on Friday, or Saturday, once we can confirm the sale is going ahead.
