Heres the middle rack semi set up. I think I may move all the 10's to this rack and build new racks for 40's and 75's where the other 10g rack is. Maybe......

actually, between 3 and 4 months.

I only had a few tanks running during that time. I was home most weekends anyway and had a caretaker to feed.

How do you plan your waterchanges?

I do them by hand. Its not that big of a pain since not all the tanks are running.

But, I am installing 2 sumps within the next week. One for fresh clean water, and one for old water. The water gets siphoned out of the tanks into the sump and pumped up into the drain. Then switch on the pump from the clean water sump and fill the tank. Beats doin the bucket thing

how many tanks do you have all together in there

Right now, there are a grand total of 19 tanks running.

Once the 135 is gone, and I build my new rack in its place for another 6 29's, the room will support a total of 43 tanks totaling around 750 gallons. Not to mention the coldwater tanks I plan on setting up outside the room as soon as I get the courage to clean up out there


I've got some updated pics to post in a fe too...

View from outside the room. The heat/vapor barrier really makes a HUGE difference. The great thing is, its cheap and non-permanent.

And here's the 10g rack for my livebearers. Note the neat labling; I can keep 1 thing organized

And thats all for now.
