I'm...dreaming of a fish-room!

[ptran]

With number of fish tanks growing significantly in the house, I wish to have a fish room to move everything into and keep them out of wifey's eye. LOL.

These are my current running tanks:
150G Moba
125G Mbuna collectible
90G Tanganyika
72G bow front Flower Horn
40G breeder housing Pleco breeder and larger Leulepi fry
30G high Leulepi love nest
30G high Flower Horn
20G high guppies (my kids' tank)
20G long Multi shellies
20G high large Leulepi fry
10G small Leulepi fry

Who's on my boat to a "fish-room" dream?

In the good old days in St. Louis, I had a basement with unlimited space for aquariums. I lost count after 50.

I believe "unlimited space for aquarium" is any fish-head's wildest dream. Good old day indeed!
Are you going to build it back up now you are here in Houston?

[mredman]

It just isn't possible in my current home. Tropical fish keeping is far more popular in the northern states - long winters and lots of basement space.

Most people build fish room out of their garage. Most garage now has a tandem parking which would be a perfect spot for a small fish room.

No it's Shrimp tank. 10g split to 5g each side for red and blue shrimp.

My filters take all space under the stand, so I can't do this. Lol

My stand is 40" tall and 72" long the rest of the stand with the doors closed is the filter. One big Wet/Dry. I keep all the door shut most the time. Don't want my wife seeing the other tanks.

First, 90 tanks is a sickness - I have it too!

Second, the heat in my attic is unbearable during the summer months. How do you regulate the temperature?

Good idea Troy. I will try this for my 10gal fry tank.
