Large tank and stairs?

What is the best way to get a very large (and very heavy) tank down stairs?

Besides paying someone else to do it. Although hiring a moving company has crossed my mind. LoL

Slide it down the edge of the steps so the bottom is touching the steps all the way down would be easy. But I would say the easiest is to hire someone, Heavy on the wallet but light on the back :D
 
I got my 180 down the stairs by placing 2x4s in a row and using it as a slide. I had it up on its side, then slowly walked it down to me and then rested the edge on the 2x4s and SLOWLY creeped it down the stairs.

200DD (48x36x27) so it has to go down on it's side. The steps are cement, so sliding it down would require wood.

I was thinking an appliance hand truck with stair climbers.

The stand just about fit down the stairs so the tank (crazy heavy) should be fun.
