    Looks great! Really well thought out. I'm glad to see you're making room for a pool table - I still love mine, despite it being the main reason my collection is capped right now.

    What kind of fish do you have? I would love to have a space like that for a fish room, I'm interested to hear what you have planned for that. Are you putting a show tank somewhere?

    Quoted from Spyderturbo007:

    The plan is for an 8' reef tank to be built in the fish room wall. The fish room will allow me to house the life support system for the tank, as opposed to having to lug 5g buckets up and down the steps all the time. It's going to be awhile before I can get to that, so I'm just going to drywall the wall for now and then rip it out in a year or two when I'm ready for the tank.

    That sounds amazing - make sure to keep us updated on that.

    I have a 65g freshwater right now, and had plans to do a 90g peninsula tank (I'm in love with the idea of a peninsula tank..) in the basement. I wanted to make that double as a sort of bar, with a ledge protruding from under the tank to rest drinks. I was really excited about it, but the reality of building a custom stand, trying to figure out how best to do maintenance (I don't have a sink in my basement at the moment), etc quickly set in. I'm still hoping to do that at some point, but it's further down my priority list these days.

    Quoted from TheLaw:

    Drywall. Want nothing to do with it! I think I say that in every game room thread too

    I agree as well. I figured, best case scenario, I save a little bit of money and do a mediocre job at drywalling my basement. That quickly turns into a worst case scenario when you're spending all of your weekends helping your buddies drywall their basements!

    I love that. Can you provide some details? Apps? Hardware?

    #326 4 years ago

    Thanks for that! I've been thinking about getting some Hue stuff for my basement (currently under restore due to a flood in early summer). I'm going to check to see how well the systems work together.

    Do you use any other apps on the device (like iscored) or is it purely a control?
