I currently own a 55-gallon freshwater tank. I am in the middle of doing some remodeling at my home and I was thinking of placing the tank in the wall (I think that would look awesome) in my living room. It would be on an interior wall. I have an 8-foot wide archway that I'm going to shrink down to a 4-foot opening and put up a wall (the wall the tank would go in). I would be able to have access from the back that way. Is there anything I should know? I have made sure it would fit and I am building the wall so it is not a problem to add enough support for the weight. I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to install this though. I want to make sure I have complete access to the tank to do all necessary maintenance. That seems to be the tricky part. I want it to be flush in the front and have access from the back. Any thoughts and or suggestions? Thanks for your time.

Hi all, this may be a stupid question, but here goes... I'm ripping up linoleum floor in favor of a tile floor in my kitchen (and taking up carpet in the dining room). Underneath the linoleum is a 1/4" of some kind of plywood - could be luan? Under that, is 3/4" subfloor of some kind of plywood. I know tiling over luan is a no no, so I want to know how to tell if the 1/4" wood under the lino is luan or not? could it just be 1/4" plywood? Thanks in advance! Steve
