You want a drain in the floor in case you overflow or in case a tank breaks. Along that line of thought, tile or bare concrete floor- you don't want a carpet soaked in fish water.
Suggestions for "Fish Room"

my suggestion: take your time, get what you want when you find it. getting cool fish that other people like will be wasting your money.
Set aside a space for RO Units. If you have a fish room, you WILL want RO water sometimes down the road. Three at 50gpd would be good! ^^
Well here is what I've worked up for a general layout. The pond will have bench type seating at the edges. I don't plan for much sitting, all tanks shown will be 42" to the bottom of the tanks(leaves room for more misc tanks below) The sink and R.O. water storage will go in a utility closet across the hallway.
Thanks for all the suggestions so far.

I looked into Z-beam, but want to go with a finished look. I'm thinking it will be better to build custom wood stands.nolapete;1254034; said:

I agrree, I will have access to the back of the 350g(on the layout, above the 350 and to the left of the 180) there is a 2' x 5' void. The only problem is i'll have to crawl under the 180g to get to it. The demensions are set due to the layout of my basement, I can gain a couple inches depending how I frame the 14'5" wall though.
