Wow, looks like fun and already well underway. Do you have an ETA on when the renos will be completed? Any consideration going into moisture removal when reworking the HVAC system as you mentioned?
I will be running fans and duct work in the fish room and connecting the HRV directly in that room. I am hoping at the end Februrary to have everything completed, pending glass delivery and tank building process. Once the bathroom is moved and functional I can rip out the old bathroom and wall and start the stands, electrical, exhaust.

HRV for sure, it will keep the Humidity in check. Use green drywall should help as well.

Dang dude - this is awesome!!!
So I take it a 10% weekly water change is out of the question, lol, that would be a 150 gallon water change, oh my. Then again, there should be enough to be its own mini ocean

1500g would be a guess to the total volume of the entire setup, but keep in mind it is three separate systems. The largest being around 700g or so.

The water changes he does already now would make you cringe I'm sure lol.

Putting my progress to shame rofl
Figured it out
x2 10'x30"x12" tables (stacked) 187.01 x 2 = 374.02
x2 7'x42"x12" tables (Stacked) 183.27 x 2 = 366.54
225g DT (going to stay)
450g DT (10'x30"x28")
= 1315 gallons
+sump and plumbing volume...oh my
I was close ..lol
Ya, downtime is lost money. Need to get this done ASAP so I can get the glass in and tanks built. It will take a while to build all the tanks and cure, and cycle and all that fun stuff.
