Your Dream Fish Tank / Fish Room Build...........

[Hangman]

If you could build a dream fish tank or fish room from scratch, what would it be? There's a reason for me asking and I thought I would collect ideas...

Well if it was a fish room id definitely want a deep sink for washing n such. With a good flow rate for water changes. Many electric outlets for all the equipment needed to run. Built-in drain to outside so waste water isn't being ran thru a hose thru house to outside. Like drill a hole in the wall plum in a 2inch drain pvc with shut off to keep out bugs n stuff. Dry storage area to keep supplies, nets , rocks , filters , chemicals ect. Have the room be Very well insulated and run a dehumidifier in it for all the water volume. And set up some cool rack systems so u can keep many multiple tanks. Possibly have a huge water container outside that holds 500+ gals so water is ready for new tanks and water changes. Install a few floor drains in case of overfills and the occasional ooops !

If it was a dream tank , id go for something big but not outrageously impossible. Say 12ft * 4ft * 4ft, only thing is ud need double doors a it'd be a garage tank. And have it made of acrylic not glass. MUCH LIGHTER!!
And of coarse it'd be a giant tanganyika tank!

Shark and rays tank , BIG sharks lol

you don't have to go for crazy big tank. You can go for some 150g and keeps some rare, exotic fish like fahaka puffer.

Ecoxotic Cannons on every tank.

and i would add afew cameras in the room just so i could watch them when im away or just incase a fish ends up missing to see what happen, as for the room i would prefer no windows, tile floors, double doors, close to the backyard or easy access to outside, enough space to add a small couch or lounge chair so i could just sit back and relax, add a humidifier, adjustable dim lighting, have the room on the quite side of the house[ away from the main living room or play room]

1: Tile floor - Check
2: Double doors - Check
3: Outside access - with water/drain plumbing - Check
4: dehumidifier (power vent to outside) - Check

Yeah, the 150 is the largest tank that's 18" deep. Any bigger and it would have to be 24" deep which might take up a bit too much space. If I do go 24", it'll be a 265 gallon 7x2x2 tank.. Still up in the air for now...
