Canuck AquaTropix Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Hi Everyone, I am currently in the process of designing my fish room. Where would I be able to get the most amount of details on the rack at the Co-Op? I would like to basically copy the design. The areas that I cannot figure out from the videos is basically how the base and the top is designed. The actual racking system is well explained in an older video. Thanks Canuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck AquaTropix Posted January 20, 2022 Author Share Posted January 20, 2022 Thanks for the reply, I have watched that video several times. I am looking for more detail in regards to the base as in how it sit on the floor. Also how the top of the rack is finished. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanisag Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I am also looking to copy this design in my future fish room. I do believe that the bottom is essentially sleeper 2x4s that are screwed straight to the floor and the vertical 2x4s sit on top of it. Exactly how walls in typical houses are made. The top is probably similar but perhaps secured back to the wall. I am hoping to get more insight as the store expansion videos are released. Anyone who lives local and could snap a picture of the bottom and top would be greatly appreciated. Also I plan to have more than one tank size in my fish room and would love to see pictures of others who have copied this look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judobadger Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I am not saying they are a bad design but I went with the stands Joey King of DIY did and when floor to ceiling as racks. It let me avoid the lag bolts, but admittedly uses more lumber. They were very easy to build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick_G Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 @Canuck AquaTropix, is you question about the trim pieces at the top or how it’s attached to the wall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanisag Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 The video addresses the crown molding at the top so I'm assuming they are asking about how it attaches to to wall. It's barely visible in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
