    More fishroom racks

    I'm making a final push to try to get the rest of my fishroom racks finished. I figured out that I have room for two more racks, and then it's full. One rack is a stacked set of a 20L, 20L, 29 and the other is a set of 3 tiers with 3 15s in each level. Today I got the lumber cut and I'm in...

    Fishroom Emergency

    As some of you know, I've been setting up a fishroom over at my mom's house. I have around 12 tanks moved into the room. Goodeids, mbuna, some wild-type livebearers, and the like. We had high nitrates out of the tap, so we had the plumber install a nitrate filter that runs to the whole house...

    Fishroom Air Loop Set Up Quesitons

    My visit to Christine's fish room on Saturday has inspired me to try and get my room in better order. First order of business is to get an air loop system set up. At the end of the day, I will probably have somewhere around 30 outlets coming off the loop. I'm currently running an EcoPlus air...

    PEX vs PVC in a fishroom?

    For those of you who are into the DIY....who is using PEX? The cost has kept me away, but it does seem appealing to be able to avoid 90 degree angles and get it to fit in odd-shaped arrangements. Is it worth it?

    Chris' New Fishroom

    I've been fussing over the layout of my new fishroom. For those that have seen it, you know it's far from finished right now. The room is both awesome and difficult at the same time since many walls have doors or closets. I've also got some frustrating soffits around the ceiling to deal with...

    mold resistant paint in the fishroom

    I had hoped to get my new fishroom painted before the move-in, but as these things go....it didn't happen. So, I'm still trying to decide how I want to paint it. I've been looking into mold-resistant paints and paint additives, and it looks like this stuff (3-iodo-2-propynyl Butylcarbamate‎) is...

    New Fishroom - The move has begun

    I was able to bring a few tanks-worth of fish over to the new fishroom. More will be moved tonight. We had several other minor electrical repairs to make in the house, so while they were there, we've asked them to add a few ceiling outlets for me in the fishroom. Work on that started...

    DIY Fishroom LEDs?

    Has anyone tried using DIY LED tape/strips in their fish room? I was wondering how hard it is to install something like this - http://amzn.com/B00B2F3KDQ - along the bottoms of racks so that they shine into the tanks below? Is this as easy as it looks or am I in for a load of trouble?
