You'd probably be better off posting this in the large tank forum. Much more experience with this size tank there.

I moved a 300 glass tank with 4 people, but would not recommend it.....we came really close to losing it = scary. The acrylic should be lighter....
I would go with at least 6 as well....but you can't beat the price!! Good luck with the move!!

Heck my 125 glass tank probably weighs 250lbs. However it's 1/2" thick glass.
