    So, I'm thinking I'm gonna buy a 180, stand and sump from mcfadden. He's up in CR and I'm in IC. Gonna need some help moving it and I guess I'm gonna have to rent a Uhaul cargo van as well. Anyone available to help tomorrow afternoon, perhaps? I know I'm a newbie to the club. Have pity on me. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/biggrin.gif

    Update: 
    Got the tank and stand back to my house in one piece in a Subaru Forester. Holy crap is that thing heavy. Thanks to my buddy Eric and McFadden finally got it moving.
    Got home, got the stand downstairs, but the tank is gonna require at least 3 to 4 people, so it's sitting on a dolly in the garage. It's a short set of stairs, just a tricky turn in from the garage. 
    Anyone out there wanna help tomorrow? Won't tank long. I mean, "take" long. I have tank on the brain.
