davidr2340 Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 Have a couple friends come over and lift the old one out of the way for you. Hmm... Might not be a bad idea at all! Thanks!!! Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 yea bud, while doing a water change, and the level is lower, slide the 24 towards the bathroom as far as it will go, then slip the Solana in place. Den ya just gotta deal with the 24 blocking the bathroom door for a month or so ( BTW, dont forget to refill the 24 ) JMO. Are you working on the, you know....the thing? Link to comment

Serious, you think I/we can just "slide" it??? I hope so... Yessir... Ordered a gem or two from here today. Also, just ordered fourty pound of reef rock from John @ Reef cleaners... Man, I called BRS today to check when they are going to get more of the other Eco Rox in... He said "months"!!! Oh well... Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Oh hai. Hi Serious, you think I/we can just "slide" it??? I hope so... Possible?? .....Let me say this, I slide my 12 all the time- on carpet mind you and the bottom of my stand is flat ( no little legs.) I can move my 12 full when I need to. If yur really thinking of trying this, I would suggest trying to lower the water by half if possible, shimmy over and refill. I do this by myself with the 12, maybe have someone hold the tank/stand while you shimmy from the stand lower if ya follow. Obviously this is just a suggestion, shimmy at yur own risk! Only you know what you have there and if its really possible. Yessir... Ordered a gem or two from here today. cool! Also, just ordered fourty pound of reef rock from John @ Reef cleaners... John da man! Man, I called BRS today to check when they are going to get more of the other Eco Rox in... He said "months"!!! Oh well... Wow! Months? I must have gotten lucky huh? I wonder if they are now in the same boat as Marc at Marco rock with the figi situation. Well, good luck with whatever you decide to do David. I hope the swap goes as well as it can. Link to comment
BigART Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I slide my 24 around when it's full and I have a stand twice as big as yours. I just ordered the Nova Extreme Pro 20" for my 24g NC! Link to comment
river Q Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Serious, you think I/we can just "slide" it??? I hope so... It's only 200lbs. You can do it, unless the stand has peglegs. Yessir... Ordered a gem or two from here today. ??? Or do I need a secret decoder ring? Also, just ordered fourty pound of reef rock from John @ Reef cleaners... I cant wait so see this rock and get a review, awesome looking shapes. Are you going to do a weekly dip in purple up? I just ordered the Nova Extreme Pro 20" for my 24g NC! BigArt, you'll love your NEP!!! I have one too! Link to comment

BRS still has the Fiji is stock... It the Pukani, and others they are out of for "months"! I think the swap will go just fine... I tend to worry quite a bit more than needed.

davidr2340 Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 Well, I picked up my new toy last night... My family gave it to me as an early b-day gift. Vortech MP20!!! I have it on my Nanocube until I set up the Solana. It is a pretty sweet toy I must say!!! Link to comment
tangov559 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 where are you planning to put the mp20? i mean in terms of placing Link to comment
davidr2340 Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 where are you planning to put the mp20? i mean in terms of placing Right now I have it fairly close to the front, on the left side, fairly high up... I'll get some pictures of placement when I get home from work! On my new tank, it will be on the false wall in the back, dead center. I have Mr. inTank building me a "dry box" for it as we speak!
