So we are upgrading from a 90 gallon to 180. I get the tank at the end of the month. Today was cleaning and starting the process of preparing it's home. We are going to put in our basement. The closet in our furnace/storage room is going to house the sump, qt tank and all the power. I plan on running the plug for the lights through the wall. The tank was originally set up for a closed loop and I have not decided if I want to go that route. The next steps are pull two 20 amp circuits with 6 GFIs at ~4ft, line the walls with shower paneling or something similar so that water is not an issue, put sheet rock on the ceiling, add doors to the closet to close it off from the storage room, and add a dehumidifier to the storage room. Well here are the pictures from day one. I will keep updating progress as we go.
