Buying a house based on fish room size...

[Cory]

Put in an offer today on this sweet setup. We'll see if we win the bidding war. I'm already daydreaming.

This is a pic of the detached garage.

Good luck! That could be a sweet fish room!

Nice! Looks familiar for some reason. Hope you win the bidding war because I want to see that set up as your fish room.

 

[Betty]

Hope you get it! That detached garage looks awesome.

We accepted their counteroffer. So now it's all up to the bank really, has to be appraised etc. Which it looks like it should work out just fine.

Sweet, I'm jealous. What is the PAR of those shop lights?

Congratulations! Getting to plan a new space is always fun, and that's a huge space.

So it took a long time. But we got the keys to our new house last Friday.

Found a bonus, there is water inside the main room, and a grey water drain also. Hopefully just need to run a gas line out there to install a hot water heater now. Woohoo!

Thought I'd resurrect this thread since I'm actually working on the fish room now. I plan to take my time building things out as time seems limited lately.

Pic of the first stand I'm using. cinder blocks and 2x4. Requires no tools and can be setup in about 30 minutes. Really stout once water is on it. Also totally customizable as tanks or fish I want to keep change.


Tanks getting washed after drilling. Then they go to paint. Then assembly.


Goal is to hopefully get the first 8 tanks setup on Thursday. I'll be testing a new water change system so I am unsure how that will go.
