I’m nearly done with my basement fish room so I’ll share some lessons learned. I did FRP walls and epoxy floor covering. It’s a semi finished space, but I wanted it water resistant as possible. They make nice PVC wall panels you can get. I would consider those instead of drywall. Other products are Fiberglass reinforced plastic panels. I’d also install some dedicated 20 amp circuits with waterproof covers and make sure you have a little utility sink. I wish I would have done a drop ceiling for a more finished look, but I covered my ceiling with cheaper Polywall panels to contain the insulation. Construction can get a little spendy-especially infrastructure for a fish room, so do your planning and leave options! If you’re going for a finished look, I highly recommend running some conduit through the walls in case you want to run wires or tubing afterwards. Good luck and happy planning!
Kudos can't wait to see it.
Thank you! That makes two of us lol
