I have two roughly 1,200-gallon fiberglass aquariums with glass viewing windows arriving soon. The tanks will come in five panels that need to be bolted together on the bottom and all sides. I'll be assembling them in place in my basement. Each tank measures 12 ft x 4.5 ft x 4.5 ft and weighs around 1,600 lbs.
The fish room is 34 ft x 14 ft with ceilings between 7 and 7.5 ft. I'm seeking suggestions on the best way to lift the bottom panel while installing the sides and how to move the tank into position.
Thanks for any input!
