fishroom

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...

Joey has his latest up, this time with Tony, or Chip as some you know him: yDCEcfQvFrs

Hey guys Just wanted to share my favorite tank. It houses easily my favorite fish I have ever kept (well, at least the top 3). Enjoy! vMkrCLAzC5c Thanks!

Are there any Arduino geeks on the forum that have developed anything for their fishroom?

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...

This is my fish room set up 2012

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...

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?

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...

Somehow came across this recently. Our own Mike Barber's fishroom on Youtube! tpmmo46yqoE Enjoy!

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...

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...

As I've mentioned previously, we're going to be moving and I'll be getting a new fishroom. I've been doing a lot of research and have even had the luck to visit a few fishrooms recently. I'm currently running 33 tanks in our house, but will be able to have quite a few more in the new space...

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?

I definitely want to use one large air pump for my whole fishroom. And yes, this time it is actually happening. :D But anyway, I was looking at the pumps on Kensfish.com, and was wondering how I get the air from the pump into the tanks. Do I have to use PVC, or do they have outlets? If I have to...

So let's just say....hypothetically speaking....that your significant other is interested in looking for a new house with a little more room than you have right now. let's just say that this move would allow you to get a better fishroom than you currently have. So in looking at houses, what...

So my family is probably moving this summer; the house we are trying to buy has a huge basement that my mom is giving me for my own fishroom! I know it stands 5'6" tall, and is very wide so no lack of space for my tanks. To keep things organized, I will have multiple bins labeled as things like...

Does it ever end? A few months ago, I lost my female amatitlania siquia from Grenada, Nicaragua. The male has been living a lonely bachelor's life since then in his own 10 tank. Luckily, Matt (who has way more brown and tan and grey fish than I do) also had a breeding pair and had grown up a...

I want to share with you my new fishroom build project. I got tired of dragging the Python around and doing water changes and ran out of space for more tanks. I was inspired by many of the club memebers fishrooms, including Cabinetmkr39 (Dave G) 360 view, and decided to build my own Fishroom...

I'm finally about to update my first rack of tanks. I've got a 4-foot set of Edsal shelving (the bulk E-rack stuff from Lowes). So far, it has 13 tanks on it...mostly 10s with a few 5s. All are running with Poret mattenfilters with air from an Alita AL-15A linear air pump (uber quiet!) and...
