Well don't get too excited! There isn't much of anything to show yet but I am planning this big tank and I need your help!
The wife and I have leased a house for the past 8 years and this Friday we will be owners of a new home. More importantly it has a huge finished basement with plenty of wall space and there is already an exterior area between the basement walls and the outside house walls. BIG spaces for a dedicated tank room behind the tank.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS TO BECOME A REALITY SINCE I HAVE BEEN IN THE HOBBY!
This will be my first build of this size and I need your help to figure it all out.
Tank: The tank is a 400+ (finalizing sizes) @Planet Aquarium tank. The tank is 96" x 36" x 24" tall.
Before I get to any more details. What are some things I need to do to prepare for a tank this size?
I am thinking these are some things:
1. Install a floor drain
2. Install dedicated power box
3. Install ventilation
4. Waterline and Sink
What else?
