Ok peoples I finally get to start my own build thread. We bought the "beater" house on a nice street for cheap so for the past year its been non stop renovating! The wife said I've done enough for her and I can concentrate on the "man room" and tank... Its a loft over the living room, 13x16, and this is where I decided to put my tank.
As you will see in the pictures (maybe) is that the back of this room had a small closet which I believe was a way the builder used to hide the fact that the roof line was different there. Anyway I decided to extend the closet 2' and use it as a "fish room". But, due to the differing roof lines, it only made the best sense to center the tank at the highest point where the 2 roof lines meet, which made it off center in the room. So to bring balance back to the eye, a bar will be added to the left. In summary, I thought it would be cool to bring you folks along for the whole room reno... so thats what you get! a 120 build and an episode of "Man Caves" in pictures. As stated in my New top hobby thread,
