Hello
how are you reefers

so finally now i am going to make my first fish room that will have Coral frags systems and fish QT systems


this is my new room i will transfer it to a fish room
i am in the processes of re-pain with white color
but i am thinking of black as well
any one had a room that its full black ? is it going to be good or white or gray ? i am not sure i need some idea

also what should and shouldn't do in the room and design ? for electricity and for pluming

for tanks should i do rack system for frags ?
i am planing to have 4 coral system
1-SPS frags system
2-Lbs/soft frags system
3-coral QT system
4- new arrive system when i get shipment or something

also in one wall will be rack system for fish QT

looking forward to watching this all come together. I put a ton of planning into mine and there is still some things that i would change if I could start over.

You probably already considered it, but with 4 systems make sure you got electric capacity. Most of the time a room like that will be fed from a single 15 am breaker which wont be sufficient.

Nice - I wish I had a water proof floor but my tank is on hardwood. Looks like you got tile there.

yes all our building is concrete here
so even if its in the 4th floor you are ready to put a huge tank

but the room i am useing its in the ground floor so i can put what ever i want with no problem

Good i assumed you had considered it, but sometimes the most obvious things are overlooked so i wanted to mention. Look forward to seeing progress. Fyi ignore the mess it very much a work in progress, but my wife did this as wall color for my room....kind of a water vibe i liked how it turned out.

Make sure you have a ventilation plan. Tanks produce a lot of humidity.
