Moved fishroom

So when I first set up my fishroom when we moved to our house 6yrs ago I put it in a 14' x 14' room that has a small built in shelf and a sump pump in the corner. It worked out great. When we moved out and then back into our house last August I put my 8' fish stand in the finished part and had to reroute my drain pipes, electrical, and my filling tank. Frankly it was a pain in the butt where I had it so before I set up 3 tanks I've had sitting around I decided to move my stand which only had a 40 breeder and a 20 high set up on it. I got it back in the "fishroom" with 5 tanks set up on it now all full of fish  ;D. All I have left to do is move my 75 to the fishroom and my table that has my brineshrimp hatchers. It was a big job but I'm so glad it's done!

...very nice....spread out tanks can be a pain, much more workable with all in proximity with each other...........smart move, bro.... ;D

Plus I wanted to get it moved before I set up my permanent water filling system. I didn't want to run the PVC halfway across my basement. I'm going to have my wife's grandfather help me cut into the hot/cold water pipes so I can have water in the fishroom and a laundry sink in there too. That will be amazing

Yeah I've always wanted one but never got around to getting one put in there. I have a 1/2 bath 3' away from that room that I used the sink in. And my laundry room is 10' away where I have my water supply and stock tank I pump water from to fill up tanks
