Charney Charney where is the update?
was actually signing on to right a little more. Will hopefully get the last fish in tomorrow. Finally got my sump running on my 75 that was a **** ****

I need some input the room is close to done and hopefully finished in the near future. I just need to get the contractor back to hook up the room to the generator ( and when he does this all my outlets will be live). ALso my floor drain pump isn't completely plumbed yet.

Once this is finished he said he would build wood stands for me. Here is my thoughts for lay out. all input would be helpful. All stands will be two tier. Unfortunately the room is only 7 feet high so this limits me. I would love to run sumps with most of these tanks but don't know how that could be done since there will be min room under the tank. please give me input

the 6x4 tank will be two of these stacked. sump will inbetween that and the 3x6 and they will share it. under the 3x6 and 8 x 1.5 (this will hold my very long 180) there will be small tanks. The 6 x 1.5 stand will be for 4 40 breeders for quarantine. Everything shaded is to hold tanks. all numbers should be in feet. Really any ideas on how to do sumps on tank along the walls pls let me know. If you have abetter layout pls let me know. I have the 180 that is 8 x 1.5 and the two 250s that are 6x4. I plan on picking up a 6x3

the one mistake I have caught so far is the I should of had the main door on the bottom right swing out and not into the room.

You can put the sump next to the tanks and put it all on one system
