Advice needed - Building work disturbance?

[TOM-779]

Hi
I had planned to get my tank up and running January but delayed due to several house issues
which comes with moving home. However, latest problem has resulted in the need to knock down small wall to enlarge bathroom.

I am worried as the room next door is where my new tank is going to be set up (not actually resting against wall where work to be carried out in - tank will be going on opposite side wall) However, I am still worried about possible impact noise, vibrations might have on tank if I contiue with plan to set up before building work takes place. Its only a small room with small wall coming down -but then whole new bathroom needs fitting. Dust not so much of worry due to doors closed and taped up.

I would be grateful for all of your opinions - just eager to go as this will be my last tank before I lose my sight and go blind so eager to get going. However, should I be cautious and delay set up until all work is done.

many thanks Tom

I've done plenty of house renovation projects in my house with tanks set up - including replacing the bathroom (floor and all) directly above my tank. Nothing really phased the tank. Like you said, protect from construction dust etc. but the vibrations shouldn't matter too much.

I think you will be alright man just keep the dust out a little vibration wont harm anything.
