It seems to depend on your starsign, those of us with water signs cannot have just one tank.

Multi tank tips. lol

Remove skirting board and dado rails they take up valuable inches.
Sell furniture, you have a bum to sit on.
Sell tv, dont need one if you have tanks to watch.
Downsize your wardrobe to a cardboard box, then use the wardrobe as a tank stand.
Convert your loft, the kids can sleep there their bedroom can be a fish house.
Remove the bath and install a shower cubical, Im sure a tank can fit where the bath use to.


If my hubby reads this he will leave home lol

lol that is too true :good:
 
What I have done with a couple of my tanks. Instead of having one long side against the wall, turn the tank round so the short end it against the wall and have two side by side. Dont have a tank background between them so you can view both tanks from either side and together. Its great I have a small community tank next to my 16" pleco's, it looks weird seeing tiny fish with the monsters in the background lol

thats a cool idea i dont think my gf will go for it though i'll have to be sneaky :shifty:
 
Easy solution to that Jay, tell your girlfriend its to help you multitask by watching two tanks at once lol
 
i duno if it just me or sumink else but lemon cichlids and the blue ones look realy nice together and you could add a couple of smaller syno cats to make it interesting at nnight
 
i don't have a bed room anymore, i have a fish room with a bed. i have 5 fish tanks in my room. three dedicated to bettas one for my baby snails then my big 26 gallon.
