I'll be there after work Friday afternoon. Do you have enough bodies? I can probably get 1 or 2 guys if I know what time.

Will let you know, have to see what the weather does, the grass down the side (where the tank needs to go) is crazy slippery when wet, and there is one spot with only 5" clearance, dont want to damage the tank, or any helpers!

Sounds like a good time for me to stop in with my camera.

I can't help much with lifting the tank but I'm full of good suggestions

Wow Dave, great work I wish I could help on Friday, but distance is a bit off limits. Can't wait to see the monster running.

So, I helped Dave move the tank on to the stand today. This thing is HUGE.
It's Dave's thread, so I'll let him tell the good stuff, but I will say he did a great job on the stand; built rock-solid. Oh, and I got to see the fishes! There is a French Angel that is the biggest Angel I've ever seen. This guy has to be 14" long by 12" high and at least 6" thick. And a Blue Face Angel that is just stunning. All the fish look to be healthy and fat. Awesome collection of fishes!
I am soooooooooooooo jealous!!!!!
