I'm curious how people live with their tanks in their homes

That’s not a small tank. And, it’s a big tank in a place that looks very tough for maintenance. It also looks incredible and well maintained. Amazing tank!

Mine is next to my computer so if I turn my head I can see it the side of it. You can also see it the entire front of it laying on the couch. I can even see it from the kitchen since there is a bar. I basically stuck it in the most centralized place I could.

When I toured this house to rent the landlord knew I kept fish and was trying to sell the place to me by saying "you could just put a fish tank across this entire wall!" - It is like a 20 foot wall or something. Usually land lords hate fish tanks but he lets me have 3 cats and a dog too!
My landlord hated my fish tank. He thought it made the water bill high. This was back when I had a fresh water tank and didn't do water changes for 6 months at a time

Water is included with the rent here too :cool: Tbh the shower and laundry and dishwasher probably use more than my water changes.

Mine Is in the living room visible from the kitchen, dining and tv and pool table. Can even see it from our outdoor area, it’s a family tank :) still early in the process of stocking so only lit by two blue LED’s.

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
