Hey all,
I’m looking to finally construct a designated fish room, a mix of freshwater, salt, and some brackish tanks. I’m looking for advice about what you all added to your fish room/ fish keeping setup that I should look into adding. This could be stuff you have or stuff that you wish you had. Anything from basic filtration, airlines, lighting, pumps, dosing systems, aquarium stands, etc. this will be going in a freestanding garage that will be renovated fully to accommodate a fish room. Probably with underfloor heating in poured concrete as I live in a cold climate. It will be fully insulated and have running water and electric. Looking forward to what anyone has to say. Thanks!
 
My dream is an air conditioned room to eliminate the need for heaters or chillers year round.

Good luck with your project!
 
Freestanding laundry room sink (plastic or metal, from a big box store); mini cube freezer for frozen food; horizontal leg water-mixing tanks (can be stacked, if desired) with wall mounted RODI unit. 🤓
