    Hi Everyone!! I don't know if many of you are aware, but, Boone High is building a new school. I have to move my classroom in December and that includes the aquariums. Nick and I planned to set up the move on the 21st of December around 9:00 AM. If you are willing to come help out, it would be MUCH appreciated! We will provide lunch! Please let me know ASAP if you are willing to help out. We'd like to get it all done in a day! Thanks!!!!/DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/biggrin.gif

    Count me in barring any unforeseen problems ;0) If there are things needed, like buckets, etc. will you be posting nearer to the move date?

    Thanks, Sponge! I definitely need several things brought if people can! I need storage tanks (big ones) or big garbage cans. I could also use another net or two and many hands and a few strong backs! I have my own crew coming to help out, but, we could definitely use more! Please let me know soon if you are willing and able!
    Thanks!

    A pump and hose (bigger the better). Something to sccop sand if you have would be great as well. We are moving 2 200G tanks.
