Don't want to, but I can't figure out how to move the thing that far. Normally transport it in my truck, but we're selling the truck too. Not comfortable putting this beast in the Uhaul.

Located in Bakersfield, Ca.

135 gallon aquarium w stand. Approximately 6' long
2 Rena Filstar XP4 filters, bottom fed, top return.
Water heater
Custom made basking platform with lamps.
Perfect turtle setup.

Great setup. Never leaked. Been running smooth as-is for 3-4 years. Took me 4 years to get it all done, going to start over when I get where I'm going. Turtles NOT included, they're coming with me.

Contact me if interested. Moving early Jan 15.

Pic on my phone is too big to upload. Will shrink and post when I get home.

Can't help with the tank but what are you doing with your turtles?

So have you thought out what to keep all of them in? Thats a few turts. I dont think you would have a problem taking the tank in a u-haul. Just wrap it in blankets and maybe strap it down.

Yes, they'll all be in their own separate, smaller tubs when we get there. Going to be a lot of work. Will get the boxies back outside once it warms up in the spring. Hoping to get an aquarium setup before then. We actually only have our original 4 left. A lot of the ones in signature were rehabs we took in. Need to update that.

Considering moving the aquarium if we have a house to go to when we get there. If we go into a rental for 6 mos first I don't want to deal with it.

Nope, although sometimes I feel we move that often. This is the first move out of California though.
