My brother is currently in the process of having plans drawn up for his new house,he plans to add a room 20'x20' to house his fish collection, which you might have gathered he is into in a big way.(especially cichlids)
He has a problem though (if you could call it a problem) he can't decide weather to have 5 or 6 100g plus freestanding tanks or have the tanks built into the walls.
Any of you guys know anything about built in tanks, this is unchartered territory for both of us.
What are the pros and cons, eg. water changes, tank cleaning access to the fish, how easy or difficult is it?
Any help and advise will be much appreciated,or if anyone can come up with any other novel or original ideas for Shams fish room,they will be much appreciated also.
Cheers.
