Finally started building my stingray room

[murray8698]

So my fiance and i started looking for a house in march 2015, after looking at a million homes we finally found a basement that was big enough for my addiction. We've Finished our upsatirs now its time to move on to my basement. So the first thing is first my fishroom. I Will have 2x450gal-8x4x2, then a 200 gal custom which is 60x36x20 for the pups/hystrix. Like i said before I needed a big basemnt so i now have a dedicated space for a filtration room as well. So running my 450's will be a 375gal 8x4x16 frag tank that will be converted into a multifunctional sump filter/also a nursery for my newborn pups. So i want to share my progress with everyone as i go along

My electeician installing all my outlets in the filter room, once he's finished 1 tank and filter will be ready to be installed and then the fun begins. I have to break down all my tanks that have all my fish and rays in them at the old house and transport everything to the new house can't wait for that lol.

Very cool! Also you have a good and understanding woman letting you do all this. What is your plan for water changes? Drip system with a drain?
