I think at some point I want to install an in wall tank between these two outlets below the fish mounts. (I'm a fish taxidermist). The outlets would be turned around to the other side of the wall of course and drywall repaired. Space between the outlets is about 60 inches.
This is the other side of the wall that is under a stairwell. Excuse the junk in there that will be removed.
This is the bottom of the stairs looking up. The inside wall in the above picture is on the left.
I'm assuming I can cut some of the stud framing boards to fit in the tank as long as I tie in a heavy enough horizontal board or steel beam above the proposed insert of the tank? Maybe also reinforce the two studs on each side of the proposed tank? Will that work? There is a stairway as you can see above this with a main floor, and another one above that.
I like the idea of not only installing an aquarium with native fish here but the space under the stairwell seems ideal to hide all the unattractive equipment that goes with a tank.
Thoughts?
