With a rider policy we're trying to get replacement of equipment included in the event of a failure. From what I understand nobody will cover livestock.

When I start actually adding up the cost of all my equipment, even if most of it was acquired second hand, or DIYed, its still quite up there and I know I would forever be upset and miserable if my tank went and my equipment wasn't covered.
With that giant amazing tank your building I would make sure all your permits and sign offs are in order and well documented. A fire caused by DIY wiring in your basement would null and void the policyt - like i said... loop holes DIY it but make sure it all meets current codes.
