Weird Request

[Cubzbiggestfan]

So to make a long story short. my upstairs neighbor has been out of town for a month and they have had a slow leak in their toilet that leaked into my bathroom and master bedroom where my tank is. It is prob. going to be close to $10,000 in damage. The point is that I am trying to sell my place and my bed and bath will now have to be redone. I will have to move my tank but do not have anywhere to move it. Just wondering if anyone would be interested in having my 40breeder setup in their basement or taking all my livestock for awhile. I will pay rent and food and what not. I do not have lots of livestock but I have lots of rock. I dont have to keep the rock live. I guess I just dont know what to do. This may be only a couple months or it could be up to a year. Just thought I would throw it out there. I have a tank build here...... http://www.chicagoreefs.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1394
which shows all of my livestock or at least 90% of it.

Thank you to all. Moving the tank is not my first priority, but at some point it will have to be moved. I am just kind of putting feelers out there to see if anyone has space. So far I have a couple people. I talk to insurance tomorrow and my ins will have to fight it out with the upstairs ins. My house is on the market right now and hoping to move to a home with a basement. But the story goes on and on....no need to bore anyone. I might have to rent for a year or two and may not have room for the tank. Thank you again to all. I will keep everyone posted. I will post some pics of the damage too....haha

I'd love to help if nobody else can. I just moved into a new place in oak lawn, and have plenty of space.

 

[Cubbies]

Why not move it to a different place in the house? Just asking. .

 

[Cubzbiggestfan]

House is too small and wife won't let me put it anywhere else

 

[Smitty]

You can't/don't want to set it up at your parents house...If possible? I did that with my fw tank years ago.

[Smitty]

Oh yeah, that's right...sorry bro. Well, let me know when you have some time.

yup will do

 

[Cubzbiggestfan]

Just a little update....I had the insurance appraiser by today and they will have a price for me tom. He said that the carper in the bedroom and closet are bad. 2 walls in the bedroom. 2 walls and the ceiling in the bathroom are bad. So tomorrow I will be spending the full day tearing up my place to make it ready for the contractor. I am still in limbo about the tank....trying so hard to keep it but just not sure yet.

 

[lunacris]

Well good luck looks like u have plenty of work. And a bunch of people ready to help with tank. Good luck

 

[Smitty]

Good luck with everything bro...you should try to keep the tank in the house if possible. Also, are you doing the demolition yourself?

 

[Cubzbiggestfan]

I am doing everything but the carpet and drywall.
