I don't have any of those tanks set up yet.  Fish room is still under construction.  But here is a thread discussing what I intend to do with the biggest tank - http://michigancichlid.com/simplemachinesforum/index.php?topic=1807.0

I would prefer Leopoldi instead of Motoros but $ is too much.

Sweet.  Like I mentioned before if it holds water I'll gladly commit to it sight unseen.

I didn't get to call today because of the large shipment of fish we got today. It was like 13-15 big boxes of fish and coral so I was busy I apologize. I will call saturday

All my 10 gallon to 50 gallon tanks where suppose to be delivered today, but got delayed due to the snow storm.  Expected to be delivered on Saturday.

They are in the garage.  It is a big job just to get them to the basement now.  Ughh.

Here's where I thought I was taking a picture.  But, video'd Marty yelling about Jeff supplying us with Coronas & Patron instead.

Great looking room. I read where you are painting the floor. Something I did in my fish room may interest you. I painted the floor a light beige color and sprinkled a fleck made by rust oleum and then I put 2 coats of clear over it. The only place I could find the clear that would go over the paint was at Lowe's. It gave the floor a kind of a shiney sand or tank gravel look. It cleans up great but more important it looks nice even when its tracked up after walking in water with dirty shoes.

I think the thing you have to be careful of is how slippery the floor is when wet.

[JeffroM]

I painted it with a slip resistant paint intended for exterior concrete.

Good.  I didn't want to get the phone call, "Help me, I've fallen and I can't get up!"

I am sooooo glad you aren't a comedian.

Some of those garage floor "paints" get REAL slippery when wet.  Even with the added flakes thrown in.  My in-laws garage is like this.
