Shout out to any of the MASIV folks or other local reefers for a tank moving party.
Trying to go this Sunday October 11th.
Any help would be great.
Food and beverage given for compensation.

Thanks,

Todd what time, should be able to make it, joe

Volcano1 · 10/06/2009, 09:19 PM

Trying to see what works best for everyone.

jtunafish · 10/07/2009, 01:14 PM

I should be free anytime, morning would be better though, do you have any chaeto ready to trim, got a buddy in Pekin wanting some tried to get some from Johnike last time but i was to late, if you do could I pick it up Fri to take to the swap,joe

Volcano1 · 10/07/2009, 02:44 PM

I'm sure have some extra, not a 5 gallon bucket full though.

johnike · 10/07/2009, 06:24 PM

You know I'm in. Jimmy 6 pack, Kevin Erv, and some other Redneck Reefers should be available Sunday. Remember I got the piano movers, appliance dolly, and other weapons of destruction. Keep me posted.

johnike · 10/07/2009, 06:26 PM

BTW -Joe, if Todd don't have it, I can still harvest more. Something tells me he's got more though.

jtunafish · 10/07/2009, 07:20 PM

Todd John from the reef store in Bloomington said I could borrow his suction cups so I'll get them Sat at the fragfest, lotsa great doorprizes to be won even though the tank isn't set up yet, you should come down, joe

Volcano1 · 10/07/2009, 10:05 PM

Ok Guys, Thanks.
What time works for everyone?
I'm going to have 2 suction cups also.We only used two last time, but more is sure helpful.
Working on getting a tow strap, around a 25 footer. Had a line on one, hope it comes through.
Joe,
I've still got a little prep work to do on Sat., may take a run down for S@G, meet some more folks. I'll see how far I get by then.

johnike · 10/08/2009, 05:38 AM

I've got the tow strap from hell. No worries. I'll put it on my desk this morning so I don't forget it.

Volcano1 · 10/08/2009, 09:39 AM

Ok,
Thanks everyone.
What time works best .
I'm free from 10p on fri. ,till 10p on mon.

johnike · 10/09/2009, 01:31 PM

I think I have Jimmy, Kevin, and myself committed for Sunday noon. Work for you? I got the tow rope.

Volcano1 · 10/09/2009, 02:08 PM

Sunday at noon works for me.
Sound Good ,Joe?

johnike · 10/09/2009, 03:19 PM

Todd, should I grab the piano movers or a nice carpeted low to the ground wheeled cart to help from the garage to the top of the stairs?

jtunafish · 10/09/2009, 04:05 PM

Ok noon it is, joe

Volcano1 · 10/09/2009, 04:17 PM

Whatever works. Not sure how big the dollies are. Only have about 4 feet between garage and house.I'll give you a call on sat. if your gonna be by one of the phones.

johnike · 10/10/2009, 07:05 AM

Give me a call. I'll be doing bad things to Crappies and Bass most of the day, but I'll have my cell on me. If it don't work, leave a message on the land line.

Volcano1 · 10/11/2009, 01:50 PM

Thanks everyone who helped with tank move part 1.
Hopefully move 2 will go as quick or quicker.
No stairs in move 2 at least.
Looks like I even picked up a tow strap.

johnike · 10/11/2009, 02:22 PM

My tow strap knows it's way home, no worries let me know if you pass through Princeton next week, my shop is right off the interstate. Glad to help, John.

jtunafish · 10/15/2009, 05:50 PM

Todd any updates , got any water in the tank yet??? joe

Volcano1 · 10/15/2009, 09:45 PM

No water, need to drain and move other one first. Got the overflow done, need to mount it on the tank. Waiting for bulkheads, light hanger, reflector glass, plumbing parts. Hope to have all next week. The light rack should be close to being done by then too.
