The Adventure Begins

I took delivery of my new Red Sea REEFER-S 550 G2+ today! The pallet arrived in good shape, but unfortunately it took quite a beating getting it unloaded. Thankfully, once I opened the box containing the aquarium, I was able to confirm that there was no damage, and I signed for the delivery.

Lesson learned: next time, check to make sure the driver has a pallet truck with adjustable forks

Lesson learned: next time, clear a larger space in the garage

That plumbing looks terrific in Red Sea red!

Relief! All is well -- no damage! (Except to the pallet!)

I'll be using this thread to document my journey -- hopefully some may find it helpful or at least interesting!
