Basement organization, help I messed up!

[freak78]

So I've been cleaning and moving stuff around in my basement/fishroom. Think I made a big mistake, I have too much space empty space. Now I want another tank to put next to this 220. Another one of the same size would look perfect. Now to convince my wife.

It looks good. You've got lots of room. If that's your only tank I would consider a quarantine tank, best option is another 220 and maybe a 75 or something. Depends on what kind of fish your into.

I see you have two big canister filters, they draw a ton of power. Keeping the hydro bills in check will be a point for yiu when talking to the misses.

I've been down that road, thankfully I won and have a bunch of tanks going. Goodluck

I don't see any but do you have any outlets for another tank?

I see room for a monster tank and them use the 220 as a qt tank

I agree with miller, looks like there is space for a tank that would make your 220 it's ***** I'd be ore inclined to say subconsciously you knew this would be the outcome, go for it!

Build a 500g+ tank and use the 220 as a sump

On the back wall behind this pic is a 55 and a 20H. Those are my quarantine tanks. I couldn't pass up this deal on this Tank set up. I got everything you see, tank, stand, glass tops, ehiem 2262, Fx-5, titanium 1000w heater and spare parts for 200. It's not drilled but my next will be, unless I get a great deal again on something. This is the back wall. Currently have a jade goby, Texas Cichlid and a pet store grade flowerhorn growing out. As far as outlet I would run a dedicate breaker for another tank. The breaker box is behind me, it would be easy to do.

By my calculations if you move that trash can and slide that first tank 2ft to the right you can fit THREE 220's against that wall lol

That's a killer deal. Setups too

Honestly I would like an 8 foot tank, like a 300 gallon but getting it downstairs would be almost impossible. I probably could a 7ft length.
