Mine separates the living room from study. This is an island tank plumbed through the floor to the basement.

All of my tanks are in my home office.

Best username award.....
We turned the office into “the fish tank room”. Complete with tall table for coffee or pizza!

great tank!

Mine sits in the living room next to the front door. Viewable from the kitchen, dining room table, and across the street if my door is open :D

That is a nice spot!

I have my tank in our guest room. My wife’s nieces love to watch the tank when they are sleeping at our place (the couch pulls out).

we will be moving to our new house in a couple of weeks and I’ll have the tank in my man-cave.

Awesome canopy

Very nice! From what I can tell, that's a 4 foot tank right? How do your tangs do in there and how long have you had them? Everyone says a 4 ft(mine is a 75g 4ft) is too small for other-than-bristletooth tangs but then I always see healthy ones in tanks like yours. What's your experience been like?

Everything about that set up is awesome. I'd really like to learn about materials and construction method on that floating aquascape you have there. Can you start a thread in the Aquascaping Discussion forum and tag me? I would really appreciate it.

Tank is 4 years old in December, yellow and purple have been in there from day one, hippo around 3 years. I have alot of fish, and alot of corals but everything's happy.

Put mine in the den/sun room - living room is off to the left. Anyone able to guess what my wife's hobby is? :)

I'm really thinking about some kind of bar stool next to the tank and maybe a cafe table. I can see it from the den seating easily but find myself wanting to stare up close.
