Wow!! I just looked through the RC thread on the 1200g tank install

Whoever takes the Calgary tank has got some serious planning ahead of them. I'd like to tag along on the thread of the person who takes the tank and what they have to do to set it up. Gonna be big bucks for sure

It is probably worth calling "dibs" on it just for the salvage value of the glass and related paraphenelia (pumps, etc). Someone in Calgary could make a pretty penny on this "freebie" if they act quickly. Establishing a tank of that size (or even committing the resources to move it) is not something I'd expect as an impulse decision. A lot of planning.

An aside: when moving a large piece of equipment into a work building a while ago, the engineering solution was to dig a pit, cut a hole (a new, large door, effectively) in the foundation, install the equipment and then re-construct around it. It wasn't as expensive as you'd think. And, comparing to the cost of establishing and running a tank of that size, probably not impossible to consider.
