in a few weeks I will be ready to move one of my 210's upstairs I plan on a step by step build thread just haven't had the time to put it all together I still need to empty the tank of livestock and water , clear a path for the tank to come out of the basement and upstairs . I plan to rent some suction cups and an elevated type of roller to move the tank around on so carrying it should be minimal . The stand is not quite finished yet either . but close . waiting on my retrofit T5 kits and fans still need to plumb it to basement but thats not a huge job for me ( I am a plumber after all ) and I still have to shore up the area under the tank . I just finished remodelling a room for this tank build putting finishing touches on that this weekend I'll have beer food and the works for anyone who is willing to help . I cant wait to get this baby upstairs . After going through what I did with the 180 this build was intended for I decided to just use what I already have . this tank has a starfire front and it looks great . the one thing I don't like about this tank is the top brace which is almost 18 inches of half inch glass . Its built like ....... well a tank lol. The bottom panel is 3/4 inch glass and all the other panels are 1/2 its a heavy sonofagun . I'd hate to have to hire someone for this . and would rather make a day of it with fellow reefers
 
Where are you located? I could give you a hand if you aren't very far.

Update ..... Have a solid plan emptying the tank tomorrow planning to move the tank next weekend
 
let me know if you need help, living in the hotel sucks and would be good to help someone with their hobby.
