I found some online calculator for silica glass that comes out to 220lbs. I imagine it will be somewhere close to that.

where did you have that tank built? a local resource for starfire is a much needed connection!

When the front pane on my starphire tank cracked, I went to Brin NW glass in mpls. for a replacement. Cost about $290 for 1/2" 24x72.

Regarding moving your tank, It'd be nice to have four people, because setting it on the stand can be tricky. Dual suction cup handles can really help. I got 6 of them on ebay for like $50, shipped.

My tank is 60 x 36 x 24 starphire on 3 sides and top and weighed about 400lbs. The shipping weight was 660lbs.
