I'd help out too; but I'm working from zero six to eighteen. Sorry, buddy.
No Problem guys, thanks anyway. I think that me todd, illham and eliyah can handle it. We got the keys today!!! We moved a truckload and focusload of boxes over and I took over my tablesaw and drill press. My back is killing me from that damn 400lb saw. My wife actually said she could help me move it! I was like no actually you can't. My buff buddy dave helped me out and we about killed ourselves 
Tom I can give you a hand on friday if you are moving stuff?? Saturday I got to go pick up Anthony and have a couple folks coming down from Canada.
If you or any of the folks doing the move are finished early feel free to stop by my place before the meeting?? maybe a dinner get together??

Hey Mike, I think that everything non reef related will be finished moved today. My parents are coming into town from Denver on friday afternoon so that is no good for me. Thanks for the offer tho. Are you going to do the June BBQ over at your place Mike?

Man, you still alive Tom???
Hello all. I am still alive but had no isp for a few days. I just got it back about 20 mins ago so here is a update! I got the tank all moved and all it well so far. I ran 2 20 amp circuits down into the basement already so power should never be a issue. I did trim back some corals a bit just to make everything fit again. Everyone is a little bruised and stressed but nothing looks too bad yet. I am sure that everything will come around. The aquascape is pretty different then it used to be, but how the heck are you supposed to put all the rocks back exactly like they were? Anyway I am happy. The tank is currently located in the basement for the time being. I am planning on a larger tank to go upstairs after I get done w/ all the remodeling that I have planned. I will probably keep this tank around, maybe for a zoo tank or something like that. Big thanks to all who came out to help! It sure was a long day.
Congrats on the successful move. I would guess that now that you have the internet again, that you would be able to post pics, just so we can make sure you did everything right.
Hope all keeps goin well for you!!!

Glad to hear all went well Tom. I wish I could have made it.

Ok Ok here are a couple pix. The tank is looking pretty good so far. I am back to manual top off which is horrible. I really need a day off to get my ro unit up and running. Since my tank is now in the basement it went a bit industrial. No more 10,000 things stuffed under a stand for this guy. I moved the sump out to next to the tank and will eventually string out reef bits all over the basement. I'm looking forward to having a frag system soon and eventually a large tank upstairs connected to the system after I get done remodeling the room that it will go in, and have to money to setup a big tank too. So anyway everything in the tank is a little stressed out, a little bleached or brown, but I am sure that in a month or 2 it will be all good after a couple water changes and some stability in their lives. I will be adding a 1/2 hp chilller here in the next couple weeks once it starts warming up, or I get a min to plum it in and build a little house for it outside. As of right now I have the new Clowns in the main tank and the old clowns are living in the sump. I think that the origional clowns will get their own tank soon, or will end up living in the frag system when ever that gets added. They are happy enough to host to my skimmer for the time being. So anyway here is a full tank shot and a area shot. Please excuse the mess, but I have been run off my feet since moving in to the new place, and havn't exactly had time to get anything organized. Anyway if you look close you can see one of the clowns next to the skimmer in the sump. Notice the IAP prototype getting ready to go into action! It will be nice to get that back on the tank. It was just too much w/ it plumbed out in front of the stand in the old place, now it dosn't matter much.
