griss' Tank Upgrade Thread

[griss]

You are doing a lot of work in the basement. Consider protecting the walls.

Glasliner​

0.090 in. x 4 ft. x 8 ft. White FRP Decorative Wall Paneling (1-Pack)​

interior use in restaurants, kitchens, regrooms, break rooms, and any locations requiring low-maintenance, washable walls. Made of a durable polyester resin and reinforced with fiberglass, these panels provide a nonporous wall surface that resists moisture, mildew, stains and protects wall from dents and scratches.
And salt. At least behind the tank. I splash a lot myself.

A plain white panel $40 each at Home Depot.

Oh, that looks good for the walls of the fish room. I haven't gotten to finishing that area off yet, just been working on the "family" room area where the display will be located.

I chose T11 siding for the fish room. I think there were 2 thicknesses. What I have can hold screws for mounting even heavy things and can be taken down easily

The other stuff is a thin waterproof sheet that will protect the paint and drywall.
