I'm moving to a new house next year so I did a little pre-planning as well. Mine is only an 80gal tank but later on I would like something bigger to put in my basement. So for my basement, i roughed in a drain and water line. If you have a water softener, make sure you remind them to make the water line for the fish to be hard water. My fish tank will go on the main floor for now. They are going to place my floor beams closer together. 12" instead of 16". You can also reinforce it further by adding telepost in the basement to support the floor joists.
