Never under any circumstances do I recommend two people moving a 180g tank on their own. Worst idea ever.
I'll make sure my friends never read this thread.

One more question I'm pretty sure I know the answer but just want to confirm. You have no foam or plywood under your tank between the stand correct?

You had me at lamp posts!!

Got any close up shots? I need some light mounting ideas, and that looks cool.

And I'm looking forward to moving my 180 out with 2 people. I remember it coming in lol

We have a camping mattress underneath the stand, and we used poly on the inside and a yoga mat underneath the sump.
