Will eventually be a 65g reef tank. Since I am actually getting into this sooner than expected I do not have a good plan as of yet...but I will get there and will appreciate any advice along the way.
Picking up system tomorrow morning so first decision is placement:
Option 1: Upstairs living room. (Pros - this placement would be the most visible for both enjoyment and noticing irregularities more quickly: Cons - On hard wood floor, water leaks, more traffic)
Option 2: Downstairs playroom. (Pros - Concrete slab under carpet, will allow me to plumbing through wall into my finished basement workshop. Workshop has a bare concrete floor over most...the rest has artificial turf that came off of U of Alabama indoor practice field: Cons - less visible)
I am leaning strongly to downstairs. Anyone have experience/advice you want to add before I start placing equipment this week?
Thanks,
Smoke
