Monster Fish Tank Moving

[JeffroM]

Carrying 112.5lbs each is harder than it sounds, but do-able.  The problem is that it is awkward, large, made of glass (that breaks easily) and 2 guys can't fit through a doorway at the same time.

Sounds like the guy is going to have it sold before I can even get out to look at it anyways. 

Plus the filtration flow rate has me concerned.  I wouldn't want to spend that kind of money and still have to deal with canisters as added filtration.

The suction cups are key so that you can hold the tank on the inside edges when you are going through doorways. Four strong guys and the right tools, you should be fine.

I have moved a tank close to that size (an eight foot glass tank around 400 pounds) with three guys and it was not too bad.  The problem was more turning corners than anything else.  One thing that helps is to have an object that can be moved with the tank to rest it on, we used a large rubbermade trash can with rollers and it helped (one of the kids pushed it around as needed).  Two things: two really strong guys are really helpful since you may get to areas where only one person can fit and make really sure that the tank is not wet:) I have never used the suction cups, but they look awesome.

I would say that if 4 guys couldn't move it with ease... You have the wrong four guys..

Well said!
