The Hamburg Matten filter is a pretty cool idea I might get one for a 75 grow out fry tank I want to set up. It looks perfect for that. Thanks for the link.
I'm jealous! I would love to have a fishroom, but our house is too dang small.
Can't wait to see it set up.
Just buy a new one liek I did. We downsized and I still got a bigger fish room. LOL
No problem. I have used the before with some 20Hs I had at the old house. I didn't buy quality foam and it turned out to be crap. disentigrated inthe tank and killed some fish. Buy the real deal stuff if you try it. I loved it while I had it.
Nice room, definitely popcorn time. 
I gotta try one of those filters. Pricing is that bad at all.

The jetlifters are the pricey part, so you are better off to buy the whole deal. Also, if you buy a bunch, he will cut you a discount. I don't remember how much, but I bought quite a few and it was a decent deal.
Mainly African cichlids and livebearers, nothing too special really. 4-5 different julies, leleupi, some Vics, some kribs, Xiphophorus species, black Moscow guppies and a couple pseudocrenilabrus species... I have a hard time remembering them all. LOL
Any ideas on building stands? I used 6" concrete blocks and 2 by wood for most of my fishroom. The main benefit is simplicity of construction and flexibility if you want to re-arrange things.
I'd recommend coupling your sponges with box filters for mechanical filtration.
Are you going to build an air system with PVC and taps?
Auto-water changing?
Do you have a drain? Utility sink?
Good stuff!

Looks nice!!
one thing I will suggest is make sure you have the room setup correctly before you even start putting tanks/stands in.
