The shower needs a vent, badly!
The toilet will siphon that trap everytime, and the smell from that pump is going to be horrid. :(

OK, thanks.....better safe than sorry, i'll break out more of 8" slab and put a? will a 1 1/2" vent work? or does it need to be 2"?
new question: would a 2" trap/floor drain between tank and shower (w/ no extra vent) be a problem?

The vent must be between the shower trap and the connection to the toilet discharge.
