The 450 is safely in the house! everyone I had lined up for help on my end canceled out yesterday
so this morning me, my wife, my son, my sister, my brother in law and my brother got the tank out of the truck.
one of the guys I coached hockey with showed and helped us make the trek from the street to my basement
luckily my basement is a walk out and all I had to do was remove the sliding dorr and we had a 6 ft opening to negosiate through.

the tank is still on the dolly in front of the stand, tomorrow I will give it a good cleaning and see about renting a material lift to put the tank on the stand


I want to thank Billy and all the guys who helped!!

I found a new home here at NJRC!

Congrats, and good luck. I'm glad it made it, I loved that tank at Billy's.

Congratulations on the successful move. You've gotten a very nice tank and I can't wait to see it all setup!

 

[MikeNapoli]

Ditto. By the way. Where's the pic of it in place? Or is it on the floor waiting for the stand?

If I had to guess, I think the overflow box holds more than 46g. Maybe skimmer collection cup?! LOL!
