If I could build my dream system, the "sump room" would have a TV and a La-Z-Boy recliner And a fridge.

Sweet!

In my fish room I have a 30 gal RO/DI storage container, a 30 gal mixed sw container, 2 - 20 gal quarantine/hospital tanks (for tank transfer method), 1-20 gal QT currently housing a yellow watchman goby and pistol shrimp, 2 reactors (carbon and GFO) storage for RO/DI membranes, alk, Ca, Mg, test kits extra pumps, power heads etc. Then I have 2 counters, one with the 3 - 20 gal tanks and another for doing testing and repairs for pumps and things. Funny how if you have the space, it fills up with stuff without even trying Not enough room for a TV or La-Z-boy though. Hmmm, I feel a reno coming on

Sounds like mine. TV ( 12" ), speakers from house main, separate stereo, PC etc, Beer Fridge, A/C
It's a 10 x 12 front bedroom that started off as my office. The DT is a 75g and the sump is a 50g
Build is linked below

Mines just the space under the stairs. I would add a picture but am very embarrassed by the mess right now. It's about 7' x 4 at most but works well. It supply's my 200g directly above.

Loudest part of my system would be the nagging sound I hear on a regular basis about how much time and money I spend on the tank.

You are welcome to come by for a visit. Just PM me to arrange a time (evenings). Just think about what you need to do, and then build so that you can access everything.
