Everything went smooth as butter, lots of good friends helping out, most of them shaking their heads asking why are you putting a glass swimming pool in the basement.

A big thanks to Chris (Lapdog) he sold me this tank and was nice enough to come over with 2 pairs of suction cups and a dolly to help me get it down safely.

I mean to take more pics but it went by so fast... here are a few.

Tank loaded in my truck (behind the rug rats)
