Started the plumbing and water tests everything seems to be behaving so far.

Added Texas pair and moved in my dolphin pair as the female was being harassed in the community tank.

Done. I never want to see another bulkhead ever again.

Now to add bracing to half the tanks and remove the dividers.

What size is the shed? I will be doing a fish room shed within the next couple of months, so I found your post very useful, your fish room is looking great

Few Updates.

 

Finally got around to upgrading air - got 2x Resun LP-1000 air pumps and installed a 40mm PVC loop around the room.

 

Reverse Cycle got installed so not more heating tanks  :wacko:

 

Also received a group of WC Mobas and 10 F1 Mikulas
