LOL - thanks! I do have a few updates to post! :D
Oh, I agree & understand the benefits of LEDS, but the initial setup costs usually exceed the initial costs of MH and when setting the tank up, I...
Yes, those are the dimensions of the tank. I plan to run 3x400w MH under Lumenbright mini reflectors. I doubt I use much supplemental lighting...
Post #17 - Exhaust fan (GE 120cfm) with Dehumidistat I've thought about front access and actually had an in wall system once before from which I had...
Last update for the day. :D Tomorrow there should be more, but nothing on this level. DONE! I think the arches compliment each other quite well....
Masonry progress shot: [IMG] For $10 at Lowe's, perhaps this is a little piece of mind. Half-inch insulation that will easily fit between the brick...
LOL - Thanks! You have a good plan; the next time you move make sure you have the space for your hobby to grow! Ha ha! :D

Drywall installed; mud and tape to begin. I have scheduled the masons. As you can see in the picture, down the hall there is a small wall with an...
Nothing overly exciting, but before brick, the door to the fish room needed to be hung and encased. The local lumber yard did not have a 24" 2-panel...
Thanks Matt! With the bricked exterior walls, I am a little concerned that this room may hold in the humidity, but I think at this point I have a...
That wire is running through the trusses within the ceiling. All basement ceilings, assuming the home was not build on joists, will run wires in...
Because the stairs and outer walls are OSB, I need to make certain that I move as much air through the room as possible to avoid it feeling like the...
Within the fish room is the sump: a 125g 3-chambered system with the Super Reef Octopus 3000 skimmer [IMG] Also, here is the beginnings of the...
I've finished framing and the drywallers have been scheduled. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
