Tank Install Party!!!

[Black Mammoth]

Hey everyone, I'm having a tank install party this Saturday afternoon, May 2nd. It will probably start around 1:30ish (or later if that is better for the majority). What is a tank install party? It's an event to trick some people in to helping me install my tank celebrate my new tank with beer and food!

 

In all seriousness, I will need some help removing my old tank and installing my new one. I'm replacing my broken 325g tank with a new 325g tank. My next door neighbor (and WAMAS member) will be bringing over a Gator with a winch to help pull the old one out and lower in the new one. I should have everything in place and the equipment (winch & suction cups), I just need some bodies.

 

I'm out in Loudoun County...about 20 min NW of Leesburg and 20min south of Frederick. It should be a beautiful day and a nice drive. I figured we could grill out and have some beer afterwards. Feel free to check out my new build thread to see the new tank!

Yup. So it needs to be lifted out and pulled up by the winch. Then lower the new one down with the winch. I have a buyer coming to pick up the old tank that day. So when we pull it out, we can put it on the guy's trailer. He's coming a bit a ways for the tank so he doesn't have a crew to help. I didn't think that was a big deal since I'll have a crew taking it out and putting a new one in anyway
