Tony Vargas 300-Gallon Build

[Tony Vargas]

How many electrical circuits will you be having dedicated to this system? I see you have at least one outlet so far Definitely interested in seeing the equipment list when the time is right.

One outlet is more than enough for this system. Equipment list coming soon.

[FONT=&quot]The floor panel that would be fitted to the inside of the stand and the back of the door panels were painted with white moisture proof oil-base paint. This makes it easy to clean up any mess that may occur and the reflective nature of the paint makes it easy to see in the darkest area of the stand.

The 90-gallon system had to be moved – slightly – but only just a little bit and look what we found. The sump fan blowing saltwater air from the sump ate through the paint and the first layer of drywall. So, where the 300 will sit an FRP board was attached to the freshly painted drywall for protection. If you know me you understand how important the “Spouse Factor” is to me, well I had to paint the whole room to make her happy.

Good idea to install that protective board!

Great to see the actual effects of something like that (sorry it happened to you), thanks for helping us all with the "spouse factor" through your experience
