Moving Anxiety
Hi all,
I'm starting to freak out. I've been trying to hire some help to move my 125 reef from local service companies but no luck. I have to move from Mackenzie Lake to Mackenzie Town on Sunday Aug.1st. (long weekend I know). I've done it with a 66gal. before so I sorta have a plan. I think I have all the supplies except for a few more water barrels. I'm looking for a couple people to help. If any one is interested I can offer cash, a red sea wave maker, lots of flatworms and of course beer. Any help or ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks Brian

August long weekend ... hmmm not sure what da spouse has in mind, might be away. If I'm town, I'll help. And if I'm away, I can still provide rubbermaids and buckets as well.
One thing that was suggested to me (by Doug) before my move, was rent some suction cups for moving appliances. They'll help you lift your glass off the stand. Awesome idea. The ones for moving glass, specifically, I couldn't find, but the ones for moving appliances could be found at basically any tool rental centre, about $15-20/day kind of rate. The applicance ones work just as well, although I wouldn't carry the tank with them for any large distance, just the start and the end.

Thanks
Hey thanks all,
I'll start bagging in the morning, figure it will take a couple hours then be ready to move stuff. Going to have alot of water to move, I'm making lots just in case. Great idea about the suction cups I'll get some. I'll PM with details.

You'll give away a Wavemaker? If so I'm in.
 Otherwise I will attempt to be there in exchange for beer.

As I am from Edmonton I am of no use to you for the move (due to location, not some inherent Edmontonian flaw), but I just wanted to say that I am quite impressed with the support shown by the Calgary club. Good on ya.

 Sorry I can't help out, I'm working that day. I do have some buckets with lids if you need extras.
