Moving a 225 Gallon tank

[waynemah]

I'm feeling much better about the tank at this point, the straps and blanket seem like a really good idea. Anyone have experience with the suction cups?

Apparently I don't know what a sharp corner is. I measured about 6 ft from the last stair to the hallway, 43" is the width of the hallway. The tank would slide down each step, be stood on end and wiggled into the hallway where we could re-gain control and move it freely.

Now I just need to find a good stand builder or modify the old stand to fit.

Thanks for everyone's help so far! any more suggestions are appreciated.

Take a sledge to that thing and start fresh. I can't imagine the doors are going to work as well as they once did having been removed/moved a few times. Plus it weighs a literal ton I think.

I'm sure it would take more than a sledge hammer to tear this thing apart... It's a beast.
