Monster Tank Avail to First Person That Can Get It - FREE

Greetings from Swampland my fellow reefers!

As many of you know, the 500 gallon tank was supposed to be donated to a local church in exchange for a tax free donation letter for next year's tax return. Unfortunately, the situation at the church has changed and they are no longer able to get the tank from the house. There is a local reef store here in Baton Rouge that will go to Mobile and pick the tank up if I want them to, but I would really rather see one of you guys get it.

So this is the deal. The gauranteed buy-out on my house takes place on the 6th of November and the tank must be gone BEFORE that date. I still have to patch and paint the walls after it is gone, so I actually need a a few days off that time span. If any of you want the tank, you may have it - free of charge. The only stipulation is you must remove it from house. The stand goes with it. BTW, the stand I refer to is NOT the cabinetry made overlay that you saw covering the tank when it was set up but rather the support stand under the tank.

Let me know who is going and when you can get there. Bring some straps for moving pianos and about 6-8 really good friends! :shock: The majority of the plumbing fixtures are still atttached to the tank so you can have that too. I don't care if the the person that gets the tank keeps it or sells it...I just need it out!

Let me hear from you guys!

liz i called on saturday about the tank

2 things i cant get it due to both of the walls that i can put it in ar load bearing walls and not enough room left over to support it properly and or i would have to spend way to much money to retrofit it with wood or iron beams

2nd it will cost way to much money at this time to get it up and running

i guess it was a spur of the moment thing thinking it would be cool to get it

thanks again i hope i havent burned any bridges on this

also i still dont have phones / dsl at home or i would have posted early on this but i left liz a message about 3:00 on sat

thanks again and good luck on the next person inline
