Dan,
Yes I am actually going to fill it first. I do not have much choice in the matter as it is going where the 72 sits. So unless you can sneak away from work and come give me the help I so desperately need.  I will be doing this alone and have no other ideas. It will be a miracle just doing the transfer. And oh my god that will be a lot of water.

Does the tank come with inhabitants, or is it empty? If empty, could set it up dry off to the side, and get all the stuff done, then when it's all ready, move over and do the big swap. That's basically what I did with the 150g. Was about 3 months, tough not getting fish in right away, but well worth it in the long run.
Is it a Eurobraced tank? Or, does it come with an overflow allready?

The tank is empty. You ask all the "important guy stuff"
 remember it is me you are talking to.The tank has an overflow and that is about all I know. It will be an adventure.  Yes, I will freely admit it I am in over my head.But nothing ventured nothing gained, right!  You may be getting PM'Dto death.

Leah, you know you can PM me too if I can help at all. Given that multiple tanks is kinda your thing
...I'd be surprised if you didn't just set that 72 back up again. Have you taken any of the other tanks down since I last visited you?

Leah while I am dropping the tank off I maybe able to setup a temp sump so get a pump just in case. and have a bunch of water ready to put in before hand once it is started there is no turning back We will have to conect the plumbing anyways so you don't have water on your floor. I'll find out what size plumbing it has again memory is going with not working and all. So here it is I am leaving in the am after I get up some time will call once I get to Kelowna. Mark did say all plumbing is hidden so things are looking up a bit on this one. I have to check that corner overflow how many holes are drilled 2 or 3 I hope 3 then you have a drain and a emergincy drain and a return. I'll also check on ball velves for you, see if there is any in the plumbing package, there is alot in the bag. I want to go by there anyways and see what else was in the bags that were still floating when I was there.
