    My 44gal corner tank is going to go in the corner of my dining room..

    But I couldn't live with the tank in my bedroom (that's just me).

    Hi
    I have a reef tank in our family room, a FW in a bathroom and two marine tanks in the fish room. One of my sons has an 7 inch turtle in a tank in his bedroom.
    Cheers.

    Try running a 55 gallon with a cannister filter and Prizm skimmer in the bedroom. I tried that when I first bought the house but moved it very shortly thereafter.

    At one point I had one in every room, even the kitchen lol I had a 2 gallon tank (one of the small hex) behind my sink with a baby clown) One in my bedroom with Wild fish I caught in the gulf, it had about 60% real sea water a baby sting ray and a puffer and some snails and crab I found when fishing, and I had a main tank in my living room …

    Now I just have one in my bedroom, I love the sound to go to sleep...

    In my first house I had a 75gal in the kitchen. And a 46gal in the family room.
    In the 2nd house I had the 180gal in the den and the rest in the basement.
    Now I actually have the 180gal in a living room.
