    Congrats on the fish room. I would suggest running more outlets as i have the same amount as you and its not enough. Imo i would run at least a couple more sets. Its amazing how many cords you end up with on your tank!

    I'm glad you are providing a washer and dryer for the fish. Fish always need clean dry clothes! /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/tongue.gif If you need any help nik you can call me anytime.
