Fish Room


Well the women of the house is heading for Colorado snow sking this next week. I have been ordered to clean up the tanks all over the house. My oldest has gone off to college so I am converting his room into a fish room. I have studied the shelves at the fish store and plan to start by making some similar. As I construct it I will provide pictures. Has anyone done anything similar if so tell me what you did.

its going to be a fish room I hope to one day move into the wholesale business, spawning my own fish, right now I am trying to raise the most popular fish at the local fish stores, and learn how to spawn as many different kinds as I can. I try to keep a variety nd have some grown fish of each kind to sell when the stores need them.

This is how I crammed six growout tanks and a 150 gallon sump into my office. There's better ways of doing it, but this worked really well for me in a tight space.

I still haven't gotten around to putting comments on all the pictures. Be sure to go to "next page" at the bottom to see the whole thing. There's four or five pages total.

Wow, that's quite a project, Greg.

Good luck TC, sounds like a set-up with stacked tanks is the best solution.

My husband and I just recently put a fish wall together in our dining room... If someone can explain how I post pictures to the forum I can put up some pics of what we have!! It is going to support 4 -55gals and 2 20 sumps.. or 2 55gal and 2 75gal and the sumps... One of them is going to be freshwater so I just need to figure out what to do with 3 tanks and 2 sumps...

PM me if you can help me post pics or you have any questions.

The office is on the other side of the room. I'm looking at the tanks as I type this post.
