well the kitchen sink has been giving us some problems , but the laundry room didnt have sink and I wanted a sink for the fish room so once we sorted out what we needed, we went all out. then that is when we noticed thebad line coming from the sink. Im glad that we went that extra mile in the end. it paid off.

going the extra mile is almost always worth it. better to do all now thean to dig again later.

here is the finished floor so far the pipe is just there until I moved the washer over across the other side.
this is where my sink is going to go just to the left of the pipe, and the wall that will divide the fish room and the laundry room will be 36" bi fold doors.

and here is my Fish sink man I can't believe that im getting excited over a sink.... ya ya ya I know its a mess isn't it

Well you need to have the good guy in there trowling the cement right. God I'm so good at what I do.......


And with all the reno's and ripping up the floor, and putting in another new tank.. See My wife still has a happy smile.....

That's the most important factor of a new build: Keeping a smile on wifey's face.

the reno guys are going to come in I hope that they put the wall up in the fish room so I can have time to build my sump stand since I going to get my new sump this weekend. I hope to have it all plumbed so once I get back all I have to do is do the transfer over. Im going to pre order my lumenarc reflectors too. then once home I can getmy rock too I dodnt have the time to get the rock from Mike at hidden reef.
