Subman's Jump into the big leagues (225g)

I ended up sliding mine down the stairs on several clean blankets. It was the easiest part of the whole move.

Buy a few of these and get your kids to move the tank!

An appliance dolly and an extra pair of hands are invaluable.

Good luck.

Everything went smooth as butter, lots of good friends helping out, most of them shaking their heads asking why are you putting a glass swimming pool in the basement.

A big thanks to Chris (Lapdog) he sold me this tank and was nice enough to come over with 2 pairs of suction cups and a dolly to help me get it down safely.

I mean to take more pics but it went by so fast... here are a few.

I've actually been working on a portable / motorized screen to protect the tank while a good ole game of billiards is going on. I may have to work harder on that lol
