I'm building my fish room in my basement in and unfinished room so its bare concrete. I'd like to put down epoxy to not only protect the concrete from the salt water that will come from spills but also to look good.

I've never used any epoxy before so i'm not sure what would be best.

At first I was going to use this but after reading reviews it might not be strong enough for salt water spills.

Then the garage version warns about not putting inside anywhere because of fumes.

I only need to cover about 80sq feet so I don't need a use kit. What would everyone suggest?
 
I like the garage one. Add the flakes to it. Fumes will go away after it dries.
 
To do it right your gonna have to grind floor or acid etch and let dry out for a couple days. Use only 100% solids epoxy. If you want it textured you could broadcast Quartz sand or flakes into it and top coat with clear epoxy.

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices
