Calling fellow Canreefers, need help moving tank
 

Hello all, I am in need of assistance moving a tank in Coquitlam on Friday the 11th (I am coming from out of town and do not have enough people) If anyone is available to help it would be greatly appreciated, lunch on me, PM for the details, Thanks, Dave.

You bought a new tank. How big is it? :mrgreen:

New to me! and it's big enough I need lots of help to move it:biggrin: I will post details as I go.

a new tank :eek:?...does your wife know yet? :razz:

Well how about a hint dave come on

uhhhh ya, it's all good.

nope, no hints, :lol:
For you Mike I will post pics ASAP when I pick it up.

help moving your tank
 

I live in Port Moody im sure i could help if im not working when your moving it pm me if you still need the help

...................I know how big it is. :mrgreen:

Does that mean you are going to help move it? or run very far away:lol:

Sounds like you had better offer dinner instead

I feel so left out :cry:

You can come help move it if you want, still not telling how big it is untill I have enough people:lol:

:silly: Not volunteering till I know how big the tank is :p:peace:

Muahahahaha

Look at it this way, it's only 85lbs






























per person




























If 10 people show up

I'm afraid the only help I would be is making sure your dog doesn't get underfoot




....but then I'm sure you've already got that part figured out :lol:


*edit* oh wait I'm pretty good at handing out beer as well :razz:

Must be something like a 500 to 600 gallon then. (minimum 450g)

I think it is a 750 gal.

I should be around to help out. let me know time and place.

:gossip: this is getting exciting

When you get it home, just let me know when and I'll be there, and can probably bring a few bodies with me.

Thanks:biggrin: let you know when I figure it all out, I will need the help this things a beast.

is it that 750 gal that was on craigslist? lol

:wink:

Bump, could still use some extra hand if available (around 11:30-12:00 tomorrow, PM for details) after a marathon 21 hour day yesterday (for those comming to help tomorrow we should be less than an hour to load:lol:) the fish and most of the equipment have been safetly moved and housed temporarily, Huge thanks go out to Tom, Curt, Ivor, Ian's wife, Harry and Dave Sr. for the helping hands and the use of equipment and truck. It couldn't have gone any smoother and everyone survived the ordeal. Now to make plans for tomorrow and do it all over again!

I'm lousy at lifting heavy things but if you need a hand with anything else when you get it here, I can help

Thanks, once here should be no problem, its getting it out of the existing location that will be the big one, that being said you are welcome to stop by for a visit and a beverage anytime, you don't have to lift anything but I am open to suggestions on the layout of the set-up, going to try and keep this one much cleaner and a whole lot simpler than the small one.

By the small one do you mean the 300g :eek:

Next to the new one it will look small :silly:

Dave, any idea when you will be home with it and need a lift?

Hoping to be on the 3:30, I am good for unloading, it will be probably Monday before I am ready to put it in it's final spot and could use some help then, will let you know, Thanks.

Wow 750.......... any idea what used to be in that tank?

Cheers,
Vic

I know exactly what was in the tank, they are currently in temporary accomadations untill I get the tank back up and running, I will post some pics when I start the build thread for it.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOH how exciting! Now, what will you do with the 300g may I ask?????

This is not an upgrade it's an addition! The new tank will be FOWLR as it came stocked with lots of not so reef friendly but very beautifull fish. This is for sure the last tank, 3 is enough especially when the combined volume will now be slightly over 1400 gallons. Kinda funny how just last week I sold my 180 having no intention of starting another tank :silly: Are you thinking upgrade?

I DO want to upgrade...I had wanted the 320g in Calgary but was unable to get it together to be able to purchase it...and I regret it! But yep, I am wanting an upgrade. Trying for a long tank so my tangs are happier. I have a Tang addiction! LOL

Don't we all! :lol:

If your looking to add a healthy, large sebae anemone and a breeding pair of friendly, easy going clarkii clown fish to the new tank, I have just the ones for you :lol:

Yeah, but it's hit really really really bad...I need a tank like MrFish!
