Electrical and Drywall for inwall tank

[rardijoh]

Okay I am putting in a 180 gallon in wall tank.

Should I: use the same type of drywall that you use around showers.

2nd: I was thinking of running a seperate 20 amp circuit just for the lights and equipment.


ANy input would be great

Yes, you should use greenboard drywall. I converted an existing bedroom to a fish room and the regular type of drywall behind the sump is rotting away and getting squishy from the moisture.

I ran three new 20 amp circuits for my inwall 225.
