Hey everyone, pretty new to the forum but have been lurking for some time.
Little background of me and my situation.
I've been doing freshwater aquariums for some time and am a full time wastewater operator, cleaning water for different industries and sending it to the river. So I have some experience with water chemistry and plumbing, thank goodness!
My wife and I have been looking for a new house to buy and I had my mind set on getting a big cichlid tank when I moved into a house with more room.
We had been looking at houses a few months, and finally found a perfect home for us. When we first looked at the house it had a saltwater tank in the dining room and didn't really think twice about it.
We ended up putting a bid on the house. A few hours later something told me to check craigs list for aquariums, now that I had this bigger house for a tank. Well I scrolled for a little while and that fish tank in the dining room was for sale.
Long story short, my realtor said that was the first time she ever included a fish tank in a house contract.
It is a 125 gallon tank with a 40 gallon sump. He has a mixing station in the garage with a pump running to the sump for auto top off. Also has a pipe running from the display tank to the outside for water changes.
Got a lot to learn! Thanks in advance for all the help and will post pictures soon.
