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.
