  • This guy pisses me off

  • hey I, why, because he has a bigger tank thank you?

  • Hi Jim, I am going to buy a 720 Gallon aquarium (acrylic 8x3x4) but I am wondering how I can move it into my living room after getting it shipped to my house? Thanx

  • hey G, first, make sure your doorway is wide enough for the tank. second, start calling ALL your friends, it will take many of them. It took nine guys for us to carry in the Cylinder tank. somewhere I am sure you can rent a motorized 'jack' but I would not know where to start and it needs flat path.

  • @lafishguy Thanx, Im guessing alot of that weight came from the coral insert (of the Cylinder). This tank has coral insert around the center overflow (not as much as Cyl) U still think if I get enough guys we can left it in or at least onto the stand?

  • hey G, i dont think you many options left. big tanks require a big effort. if its a flat floor you could use PVC pipe and roll it in, otherwise get as many friends as you can :)

  • Cool tank...but why the most simple and ugliest corals? He has all the right equipment for a killer reef setup but only appears to have leathers in there. The fish are relatively easy to take care of and don't need all that expensive equipment to be healthy.

  • jeez your system is crazy sophisticated !!! i love it

  • my uncle bought one of these and he paid me to swim inside it to put all the filters and rocks in place. it was the best job I ever had

  • When he got to the lights at 6:40.......I said to myself.."Ok now he is taking it to the next level..."...LOL

  • rich

    

  • all I gotta say is wow such an elaborate setup just for a 480 gal tank!

  • Nice tank!

  • @glenNHKskate i took my window out on my house to get my 12/4/5 tank in i also had 2 motor jacks with just me and a friend.
