How has your fish room changed since you first set up this system, or has it? When you planned out your tank room did you over plan, or leave extra space for future unknown improvements?

I made only 1 change to the original plan, and that was the addition of the refugium. That used up just about all the flexible space that I had to work with.

I have the ability to improve the skimmer, provided I stay with an in-sump model. That area was designed to accomodate a skimmer up to 7 feet tall, 18" square. Outside of that, it is really difficult to make many changes back there because everything is crammed in. Right now, it is working, so I'm not inclined to make any changes.
