Here is my little nano RFA build while I wait to get the fixer upper home reno done. Turned in to a complete gut job down to new floor joists.

Anyway it's between a love seat and chair and across from an empty 750xxl

Mine is in my basement along with a bourbon bar, tv and smoke eater to enjoy cigars nearby.

Here it is awhile back filling it up after the move. Still slowly adding pieces to it. It’s a 48/48/24 “cube” custom made by my buddy George from GEO
I need to get a more current picture of it.

Mine is in my basement/man cave. It makes it a trillion times easier for maintenance and it would have been impossible for my to put a 125gal upstairs. Too many windows meant to bring in natural sunlight.

Both of mine are in my sunroom on concrete slab, all plumbing is under tank and behind the long 8 foot custom lagoon tank is all the auto water changing stuff in the garage. Designed from scratch and took a lot of time. I love it.

Ours is in a penthouse kitchen, as we have no windows in the Kitchen! Unfortunately the kitchen is the first thing you see from our front door. We turned a negative into a positive every delivery driver or friend that walks in immediately says HOLY SHHHHH!!!! that is amazing!!!

I love the placement because we spend most of our time socializing in the kitchen, eating at our bar, and I do my after hours work on my laptop there. It is so relaxing,. but since I feed them they usually congregate in the corner like I'm aqua man, or have some special powers lol!!!!!

Basement. Coolest place in the house in summer. Solid unbreakable concrete floor that does not mind a spill now and then. Finished the basement around the tank including a wet lab and grow out space behind the tank. COVID forced me to work from home so now my office is in the basement. The tank is my “on-line” meeting dynamic background.
