~450 gallon reef setup

[DAVE]

Thanks Stacey.

I do have the fish room exhausted outside (just a simple dryer vent in a window with a fan/duct work). You can see the hole in the back of the room in the first "drywall/mudding pic".

I will be doing some research on the HRV unit. I believe I should be able to make it work with the existing duct work, but I will have to bring someone in to take a look.

For the time being I will try the dehumidifier/direct exhaust first and if I can't keep my humidity down then I will need to go with a unit more appropriate.

Anyone have any suggestions for a good dehumidifier? (minimum 70 pints), that is energy efficient and dependable (I would imagine it will be running more often the not).

Thanks guys/gals
