Emergency tank move. House is caving in.
Hey everyone, fellow Lark member Tom Krause called me today with bad news. His foundation/drain tiles on his house caved in this morning. So far over $15,000 worth of damage to his house so far. He has to do an emergency tank move as it happened right behind his new setup. He is going to call me in the morning(thursday) with what he needs done and I will post in the morning what he needs. He needs our help in moving his setup to a different area of his house or to move it into a tempory place until the house gets fixed. Please let me know if you can help tomorrow night. He lives in Onalaska so it isnt far to go at all for the local people. I would appreciate all the help I can get.
Thanks
Matthew

That is crazy... Normally I would be able to help but, tomorrow I actually have prior obligations. If he needs a place to house anything obviously I will be able to provide a place to keep his pieces and/or fish (as would many others). I can setup 3 tanks in a moments notice that would be fully cycled if I needed to do so.
Just trying to help in what way I can if it came down to that.

I would be way more than willing but my wife is in Vegas all week and I have the kids by myself, including one with a double ear infection. I have gotten a whopping 10 hours of sleep since Monday between work and the kids. I apologize for not being able to help

I don't think tomorrow night would work for me since I'll be stuck hauling my kids all over the place. If you end up moving stuff on Friday night of the weekend, I may be able to help.

Tom just called me and is being delayed by the contractors at least one day. So the help will be needed either Friday or Saturday to move his tank.
Thanks again.

Definately can not help now... Jen and I will be at my folks house for Jen's Baby Shower. We'll be leaving right after Jen is done with work tomorrow and coming back on Sunday. Sorry I wont be able to lend a hand at all.
