Donny@ageofaquariums Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 I have a friend who needs to move TOMORROW. Problem is they have a heap of big tanks. So its a tomorrow only pickup. If you can't pickup tonight/tomorrow theres no point calling! Her number is 0412952439 and she will be in and out of reception Try to call and if you dont get through, send an sms. Tank one is an 8 footer that is I think 70cm wide and 70cm high Its on a heavy duty metal stand. Tank two is a high backed tank that can be setup as a waterfall jungle. From memory its actual aquarium part is about 4 foot long, 3 foot wide and about 2 foot high. This tank is quite heavy, but an excellent display. Tank three is a standard 6x2x2 on a timer cabinet All tanks are open for reasonable offers. The 8 footer is a stunner and a super reluctant sale, so dont expect to get it for pennys. I realise the measurements I have given are vague, and I have no pictures. but thought I would put this up to help out a friend. She is a forum member on here (debree420) but has no internet at the moment due to chaos of the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Junkie Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Hey Donny what if a few people could help move the tanks ? Would she rather keep 1 or maybe 2 ? I can help and I have my ute. Maybe if it works out we can save some from being sold Can anyone else help out ? FJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkbits Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Her location listed on her profile is tarragindi for those interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny@ageofaquariums Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Yea she would definitely prefer to keep the 8 footer as she was planning to setup at new place. But time has run out on her and I think the whole trying to organise everything with a baby on one arm hasnt helped. Especially since she is still working as the fish chick running brookfield pets&produce during the move. The main problem though is her new house is at brookfield and the mobile phone reception there is terrible. Just makes actually organising stuff with lots of people difficult.

DeBree420 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 About to move one tank to around the corner so if people turn up an I'm not here, I'm not far away. It's a pain that I can't organise anything in advance because my phone/net isn't on yet and new house has no reception Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny@ageofaquariums Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Yea deadlines over pretty much as keys go back tomorrow. I dunno pretty broken at the moment. Went out tonite and drained the last tanks. Murphys law hit pretty hard unfortunately All I could really do was shut everything down. Ended up taking the livestock back to my place and finished setting up some holding tanks 5 minutes ago. So what ever happens her fish are here waiting for her. On the plus side the kids managed to sell and move the 6x2x2 pretty epic effort actually, so yes kudos on that but by time I got there....... all I could really do was stare at the big tanks. All the suction cup handles in the world werent gonna help me move them by myself. Pretty brutal reminder of how hard it is to organise anything these days without mobile phone or internet access.

brwndoggy25 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Bugger! I was waiting for an address or phone call or something, had a bad feeling that no news was not good news this time around. Im keen for one last minute ditch effort, what time do the keys go back? I can bring a truck to get the tanks in one hit if we could get the manpower there first thing, or after 3pm. It aint over yet ppl, lets save this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPete86 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Well my car won't be rego'd til Mon or Tues (dramas, QLD>NSW transfer...) & I know how far away I am but if someone wants to pick me up I'd be happy to do more than just pull my weight. My ID isn't one of those ironic 'big cos he's small' type names, I can hold my end of a BIG tank & am happy to help, no payment or beers required (especially since I can't drive up myself). My mobi is 0411 414 634, call me, txt me whatever, if I can help I'm happy to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
