Hope Basement SUMP ROOMS count..... (AND HIDDEN PLUMBING)

Two Sumps running (110Gal Basement in-Wall Tank) and (90 Gal Upstairs Kitchen Tank).
-> (ALL Plumbling to both Tanks thru the Wall Rectangular Conduits...One Tank Directly Above upper Floor)
-> (Wiring tucked into Walls thru Portal-Holes and Flip Open Panels)

To be honest, it's not as tidy as day 1, since Salt Creep, Maitenance, new equipment, and lazy-days always ruins things over time.

Very nice everyone. What are people using for lighting in/under their stands (not the lighting for the sump - but lighting so you can see under the stand)

1 year. I never finished my cable management. Still debating on an Apex.

I like the Mangrove plants!!

Cable work looks fine....

I left my Cable Management for later and see what evolved.

Just kidding. :) I posted my FINAL Tidy SumpRoom Reno in a Earlier Post.
This photo was at one stage of the Reno, when I had to temporarily run both Tanks (1 day) outside the room.

This is still a work in progress as I need to install under the stand lighting and I am contemplating a UV sterilizer to be installed on the right hand side. I have worked hard to keep all the electronics away from the sump to avoid humidity and salt creep. It's been up and running since the end of August.

a 1 inch wide strip of led lights with a wireless remote. Got it at Ikea...for like 20ish bucks . It was 8 feet long and you can select the color you want

wow, I think you win the award for getting the most packed into a small stand! :)
I was about 5 inches away from being able to have a fish room. Absolute must when I move in a few years. Surprisingly this set up is easy to navigate and the shelf and reactors can be removed in under 30 seconds. I like flow through my sump with separate reactors to do their specific job where it can be controlled and not inhibit the flow.
