Re: [Killietalk] Fish room design

[Barry Cooper <bjc3 at centurytel_net>]

Don Mortenson had some clever rack designs, using stepped rows of tanks, 
which were shown in images on the old gallery. Unfortunately they were 
lost when we changed to the new gallery. Don, if you are listening, how 
about posting those again?

My own racks are set up as simple shelves. I have about 10" clearance 
between the top of the bottom row of tanks and the bottom of the 2x4 
forming the top shelf. i.e. about 10" vertical clearance. Between racks, 
I allow at least 40", otherwise is just gets too difficult to work 
between them.
