moving tank on sat the 8th

hos · 09/04/2007, 10:05 AM

well Ben said that he is now happy with the way the new tank has turned out and is going to water test it on Wednesday - Friday and deliver it no Saturday the 8th

so if any one would like to help move the 150 over to other side of room, come on over and bring some thing to hold water .
I am going to start making water just incase we need it .

so lets say about 10 am

Is their any thing else we might need to move it?
I have furniture slides .

PM me if you need my address
THANKS
Frank

So how did the tank move go? I wish I could have helped.

the tank move went well .
we droped the water in the tank and just put furniture mover slide under it and it moved over rather easy.

and the new tank fit through the door so all is good .
just getting ready to plum.

It was a fun day,.....I wish we could have stayed and helped to empty a few more beers. I second that thank you to Jim, Jay, and Rob.

I'll try and get some pics put up too.

Good thing for those funitures slides, they make it easy on us guys with the bad backs.

Also was fun seeing the new tank, I didn't realize that was coming on Saturday too. The stand HOS had made is incredible, the house will fall down around the stand before the stand gives out.

It was nice learning that tip with the pink insulation. I'm glad I didn't get the 90g up before hearing that.

I'm setting up a bigger system on the other side of the room. What's the tip about the pink insulation? Something I should know before we go ahead with this?

Hey hey hey, share the wealth. This sounds like a new one on me. Are you talking styrofoam type or the cotton candy stuff??
