New guy looking for help

[scott99c2]

Hi reefers!
I am new to the hobby and have a RSM C-250 that is anything but Red Sea. I bought the setup used and have enjoyed learning quite a bit over the past year. Unfortunately, the stand on the tank is falling apart, so I bought a new one from Red Sea to move the tank to. At the time of the swap, I want to move the tank to my newly refinished basement as well.

I'm wondering if there are any Nashville area folks who can recommend someone to help me move the tank. My wife doesn't have the strength to move it 5 feet much less downstairs, and I hate to tie up a neighbor with fish duties (even though I'm sure he wouldn't mind). I'm willing to pay or I'm willing to host a fish club pizza/beer party. I could just use some help from someone or someones that has knowledge in the process.

Thanks for any thoughts!
Scott

I could possibly help with the move. When do you plan to move it? I have suction cups also.

Welcome to R2R :) I am too far away to help, however, I hope you can find someone!

Hey Joker, I’m pretty flexible actually. I’ve been putting it off for awhile, so what’s a little longer? ;)

I appreciate you considering it!

Well I am also flexible, and that tank should be no problem for 2 of us with suction cups right?? Just give me a range of a few days and times, and I will let you know what works for me.

Hey Scott, where are you located? I may be able to help. Just need to know when and where and I will see if I can.

If you have not found anyone to help you, you may want to give Sam Morris a call. When I needed to move a 150 gallon tank, I contacted Sam Morris (615-630-8203) from Morris Moving Company. He is very reasonable and reliable. I'll definitely would hire him again.

Others who used Sam's service.

Got a hold of Sam and he did the move without any problems.
