Looking to borrow/rent 100 gallon stock tanks

[mfinn]

I'm going to need atleast 2- 100 gallon ( or bigger) rubber maid stock tanks.
Going to be doing a major tank swap in about 3-4 weeks hopefully.

What do you have?

Shoot! I have one that you could borrow but it'd be a bit of a drive to pick it up. We'll be in the Seattle area the first weekend of April. I don't suppose that would work? If so, we might be able to bring it over.

 

[mfinn]

Thanks for the offer, but I'm not sure my tank will wait that long.
A leak developed yesterday in the bottom right corner and it seems to be more today.
Just ordered a replacement tank, but it won't be ready for 3-4 weeks.


I may have enough storage containers for the rock.
Gonna be looking for a cheap 55 gallon tank and stand I can house my fish in.

Oh dude! That sucks!! I hope your tank swap goes as smoothly as possible!

i have a extra 55 gallon drum you can use. if you need help with the tank swap. hit me up. i work for coral. lol

 

[reefman069]

if it comes down to it and you need someone to hold your coral and fish. my 160 gallon only has a few fish in it and 1 rock anemone in it. i can hold stuff for you if needed.

Thank-you
I will need a hand.

 

[reefman069]

just let me know when. i can stop by dbm's house and pick up those holding tanks

 

[mfinn]

One more thing I really need to find is a 50 to 55 gallon tank and a cheap stand to house my fish in for the few days.

One of the biggest problems I run into doing any tank swap is the size of my house.
It is a small house.

I have a spot I can stick a 48" x 12" wide tank and stand without being in the way.

If it would be of any help at all to you, I have a standard 20 gallon that I could get at least as far as puyallup to Chad or whatever.. I know its not what you are looking for, but I also know how helpful anything that is clean and holds water can be when your trying to do stuff like this...

Thank-you for the offer.
I think I'm pretty close to the big ticket items, with the exception of a tank in the 55 gallon range. Need to house 2 large clowns, 2 centropyge angels, a group of 5 green/blue chromis
( which are spawning) ( and are going to be rehomed) a large purple tang, leopard wrasse.
I figure a week shouldn't be too much for them.

I have a tank stand scenario that might work for you as well to use while doing this

 

[DBM Reef]

it might actually work really well for you as it is really tall but the same foot print.
If you have my number still shoot me a call tomorrow after noon. or pm me
I think i might still have your #

I will.

Going to checkout/buy a tank this morning up north ( waaay north).
See how that goes.

I have a 30 gallon cube you can use if required.

Thank-you. But I think with the 2 stock tubs from Jess, and the 2 tanks I just got from Paul, I think I have it all covered.


HOWEVER ON MOVING DAY....................................... that's another thread.

 

[user 26995]

what day do you plan on making the move?

 

[mfinn]

what day do you plan on making the move?

When Mike ( OBD) gets done with the new 240. Placed the order yesterday and Mike said 3-4 weeks.

I'm going to setup the 75 for fish ( from Paul) out in my garage along with one of the stock tubs for just rock.
I will keep one stock tub inside for coral.
