In this super long episode I talk about adding temporary filters to my existing aquariums, the doors i built to the bulkhead and plans to insulate the rim joists in the basement to keep the heat inside the basement before I build out the fish room. I also have a utility sink waiting to be hooked up and a sump pump waiting to pump filtered waste water out of the basement. And if that wasn't enough, I've also built an open source Shapeoko CNC machine in the basement which I plan to use for countless aquarium projects in the future. It's an AMAZING tool which will open up countless possible projects for the future. Get ready for that!
