125 gallon 2 man lift

[Casey Gore]

Hey guys I just bought a 120 gallon and its supposed to be deliver to my house in a couple of days. I have a friend that will be their to help me get it inside and on the stand. But I was thinking and its like 220 lbs. Do you think that 2 people can lift a 120. Were both pretty strong and its like a 20ft walk.

The correct 2 people can easily. Can you. There is no way for me to know that.
A friend and I once loaded a long block Dodge 360 V-8 engine into a pickup took it home. Now parts would shoot out of my body and I would never walk again.

I had an ancient Oceanic 120 (1/2" glass) that I moved several times with just one other person. And that's with pins in my ankle and knee, a hip replacement, two bad disks (L4-5 and L5-S1) and a compression fracture of T4. My new 120 was easy in comparison.

My wife helped me carry my 125 gallon Aqueon with no problem for a long distance so i would say no problem.

sweet the company was like have a couple of people to help and I really got worried. But me and my buddy frequent the gym so it should all be good.

A 120 should be no problem for 2 big guys. My brother and I (med build asians) carried my eurobraced 120 just fine but that was only about 10ft. I suggest rolling it on moving dollies to as close as possible to the stand. Bottom rimmed tanks will be much easier too due to better grip with the bottom brace.
