Building a dedicated fish room.

What would you have in your dedicated fish room ?

I’m building mine, let’s hear your ideas!

Propagation tanks for coral and nems.

I'm in the process of designing an addition on my house, and a dedicated fish room is part of the plan. Here are my priorities:

• Large sump
• Quarantine tank
• Frag tank
• Utility sink
• Floor drain and non-skid floor mats
• Desk/countertop space and chair for water testing, microscope, laptop, and fragging tools.
• Dedicated electrical outlets
• Plumbing run through the ceiling/attic to my garage mixing station
• Apex equipment cabinet
• Water resistant drywall
• Ventilation fan
• Wall mounted cabinets for supplies
• A "Do not disturb" sign on the door. ;Playful

Having a couple of QTs ready would be great, if you are going to have a fish room, one QT sounds under kill lol :)

Things are still on the drawing board. It's part of adding a large addition onto our house and likely won't happen for about a year. I'll be sure to start a build thread at that time, and for those of you who aren't familiar with the amount of planning and detail I go into, take a look at my current build thread for an example: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/suncrestreefs-red-sea-reefer-xl-425-build.358990
