So yeah, moved the snakes into a faun and went to lift my viv down off the table so i could give it a good old polish all around for the first time in like 2 years..

Forgot how heavy they are!! It's at like, rib height so when i slid it off the table and took the full weight of it i nearly dropped it and killed myself:P No idea how im going to get it back UP there!

Lol!
I got it back up no probs. Think it was the initial surprise at how heavy it was when i took it down. Thans for the concern, but no injuries.... i'm hard as nails ;)

Lol,you sound as stubborn as me. Once I get a bee in my bonnet thats it. If theres a choice between waiting for help or getting it done now by yourself and possibly killing yourself in the process then I always choose the latter!!
Glad you managed it

Viv, singular???

You need more.
Trying to move 15 vivs/tanks is when it becomes a tadge more interesting.
Especially when a few months later you realise that you've got the animals settled but are still using plates from boxes.

haha yeah I guess mines not so bad in that respect! Hopefully when I get to the stage of having a stack it will be when I've moved into a house with a mortgage and so don't need to move for a fair few years!!
