    I still have to plumb the refugium... It needs to be raised a few inches. The top tank is next also.. Should be a breeze now though.

    Okay.. The tank is in... I didnt really have as much notice as I wanted but I was looking at picking this thing up this weekend.... I was wanting to see a show of hands of who might be local to conway to help me on Friday evening around 5 to load it.  I will be having a get together next weekend March 12th. I was going to cook hamburgers and hot dogs and stuff and see if I couldnt recruit a few people to help put this thing on the stand and if we have nothing else to do... plumb it and maybe sheet rock the wall up. We will see about all the work but I mainly need some help getting it up on that thing.

    Plan is to back the truck in with it in the bed... from there it shouldnt be that far to the top of the stand to lift it but being I broke my finger.. I dont know how much help I will be.. any assistance would be great.

    Even more worried now about how we are going to get this thing loaded and unloaded...

    it's not like it can just sit in the bed of your truck for a week!...

    p.s., thanks for those photos, Will!!!!  =]

    That was exactly the plan.  It is going to sit in the bed of my black truck all next week. It wont hurt it any, might cover it, but it wont be any problem.
