As for help I've hade a friend here and there for lifting, and a carpenter(also a friend, so I could pay in beer) help with the stand. The tank is for the fish and me. Actually I was just in it for a size comparison. I only have about 10" clearence between the top of the tank and the ceilling so it's hard to get in and out for swimming. Although it has been done.
