People should post some pics of their fishrooms, or semi-constructed fishrooms.

I am also building an odd one and am always looking for ideas.
Let's get some pictures going for sure. They are worth a thousand words after all.

I would consider running all your electrical wire inside 1/2" or larger PVC...same with your electrical outlets, used for outside use typically. If you use metal they will likely rust and salt creep may appear over time.
