Sorry It is finals week this week and last week I figure I could borrow Todd and his camera for a couple of pictures except he said he was done for the day. Can not say when except pictures are coming soon sometime soon.

More pictures when the aquarium room is done.

The big tank is going on the wall opposite the door. I'm going to have a plexi glass tank custom made for that wall.
Sweet! Are you going to insulate and drywall the inside? Will that building have AC for cooling? Are you going to have a floor drain? I saw one fish room where the guy had a gutter type drain system in his floors. The gutters were along the four walls and were covered with grating so just the water would drain through. Very easy clean up for any kind of filter/water changes. That's a great looking fish room you have there!
Thanks.
The details is it is a 12 by 16 foot floor. With a 9 to 10 foot high ceiling. The floor is a concrete slab with a drainage pipe with grid in the middle. The room is going to be insulated to the best of my knowledge. There is a lot of electrical power that has been wire to the aquarium room. Lastly there is an outlet for a hose and going to be a industrial sized sink inside room. The door is only 35 inches long and is going to limit unless we lift the rough the width or heights of the tanks that can go in the room.
For the Arowanas and main tank I think I'm going for a 10 foot by 34 inch wide by 3 foot tall custom tank. Just around 600 gallons.
And I almost forgot the small opening next to the window is going to be for small AC unit.

Sounds good! I would go with a 10 foot by 4 or even 5 foot wide by 30 inches deep tank. The Aros will like the extra room for turning around and anything deeper than 30" is a pain to clean. Any tank you put in there will look great! How about a couple sky lights too, LOL you got me dreaming!
Thanks and I here you on the width of the tank. I'm going to see what the ball park price is for something like that then go from there.
You might not have to go custom? http://www.tenecor.com/ These guys sell very large 30" deep tanks that will fit through your door. I think they have free shipping right now? Anyway keep the pictures coming!
