Finally back to work on the fish room

Found some time today to bust out the wall between the two rooms. There's still some plumbing in the way but the room seems much larger. Got a bunch of clutter to get out of the way too.
Here's some before and after.

So to take the 3rd photo did you have to hurdle or limbo the PVC pipes in the middle? ;-)

Your room looks sort of like my room. Kind of an organic "it just grew" sort of thing.

Sheetrock is overrated. There's something to be said for being able to reach through open framework walls.

Looking good Dave. It's coming along really nice.

I kept going after the pics, it looks pretty good now. Still some plumbing in the way, but I have access from both sides so its not a huge issue yet. Once the new sump is running and the 180 display is plumbed to it, and the small softie tank is gone it'll be open through. Here's some photos from today, does it look any better? Probably not
