Default New 220 inwall construction pics.

Finally finished our basement developement, home theatre, and inwall tank. It's a Starfire 220g 48x36x30 with a 48x36x20 sump/fuge.
It replaces a 120 that was upstairs.




Old 120


The old sump


Cement board on the fish wall front side


Back side


New tank and sump




A slight miscalculation on the tank fitting down the stairs. The movers thought I was nuts when they said it's not going to fit down there and I told them it sure as hell is and grapped a crowbar and a saw. Oh well we wanted spindles there anyway.


Tank in place and wall painted.


Tank in place from the back.


Working on the fish/hobby room.


Lights are hung. 2x250w, 1x150, 4xT5 and a 150 over the sump.


Plumbing for CA reactor, Rowaphos reactor, and carbon. Also 2 American DJ power bars.


Lee Valley barrel for water changes, RO/DI and fish sink.




Some new rock from Albert.



The sump set up with the old CS8-3 and a new CS6-3


My old K2R reactor, Tunze controller, ReefKeeper, Commercial titanium heaters and PH controller for reactor.

Wow looks fantastic. Your fishroom looks so disgustingly organized
