My Half in, half out of wall 330 starfire build.

Very impressive build so far.

What program did you use to sketch the layout of your basement?

That stand is more than overkill. Keep up the good work. What's that secret room next to the stairs for?

Thanks,

lol, those two small rooms will be a laundry room and a bathroom. they are the only part of the basement I still haven't planned out. Although I am pretty sure that I am going to just do a pocket door from the bathroom into the laundry room, cause who cares if you have to walk through the bathroom getting to the laundry right?

Nope, 5'11". Why?

I'll have a bench to stand on behind the tank to make access easier. The top rim of the tank is at 6' tall.

The hanging frag tank is one of the coolest ideas I've seen. When was the house built? Looks like some monster beams/joists supporting the upstairs floor.

Your basement looks like it's suppose to have two bedrooms on the one side and a bathroom between the two bedrooms. Is your rough in really on the far side by the window? Seems weird to me.

I'm about as tall as your son there so as far as I am concerned, you are a GIANT! :-)

Seriously though, that depth is going to be ridiculously fun to aquascape I'm sure. Looking forward to seeing that!
