Not mine either, just a small 3 bedroom ranch. Some of our tanks are on double stands, which although not the easiest to clean makes it possible to have 2 tanks on each stand:19: .

I have a 40 g and 10g in the living room, which is really a liv/din room combo, they are on opposite walls, and my little 2 g in the kitchen. And no, my house is tiny, about 900 sq ft, and I also have a big dog, a small dog and 2 cats lol OH, not to mention 2 kids and a husband.

2 kids and a husband? Sarahmom you have too many pets!:ezpi_wink1: How do you take care of them all?
I have my 75g in the basement on the concrete floor, that's also conveniently level. My 10g is on a desk in my room. I want a 2 gallon garden tank after seeing those on that website someone posted!

I've got 5 tanks right now, 4 are in the "fishroom". Before you all get impressed, it's just a small spare bedroom that has been converted into the fish room/computer room. The 75g oscar tank is in our bedroom which does make it a bit crowded but like I told my hubby I sleep better with the white noise the tank provides. It's a pretty good excuse! :ezpi_wink1:
I've also got an empty 40g tall tank sitting around. I would like to start it up but then I would have to move the 30g to under the 55g which would be a pain to do...

Toss the furniture out! I'm in a one bedroom small apartment. I have 3 tanks in my bedroom, a 55 in my living room and have made room for two more 75 gallons. Just getting them is another story.

Some of you guys are crazy! I would like to eventually have three 29 gallon tanks when my basement is refinished. One Tropical Community (I have this one), one for small colorful Cichlids, and one for Fancy Goldfish.

The husband is the worst of them all! So demanding. I'm thinking about putting an ad in the paper and seeing if anyone wants him:hmm3grin2orange: Problem is, he's not neutered, so people might not want him around humping their legs!!!
We want to get a BIGGER tank as well...at least 65 gal, but preferably something like 80-90 gals to put where our 40 is now and put the 40 in the dining room...lol. Can you say MTS?

Well, I was going to suggest a trade like that show wifeswap until you added the leg part! :ezpi_wink1:
No sense trading one for one, the goal is an upgrade! :hmm3grin2orange:
Well, lets see...the 75g will go in an unused nook in the front hallway...not the best for relaxing and watching the fish...but not bad either...
...the 25g is in the dining room..I'll likely phase it out eventually...
...the 55g is in the rec room in the basement...and so is the little 10g...which I'll likely phase out too...

I have the 55g severum tank in my room, along with my 10g nano. I had to trade dressers, for a MUCH smaller one, and totaly take out the computer desk. Was it worth it? Heck yea. I also have another 10g in my moms room, and when i pick it up this weekend, i am going to get a 10g firebellied toad tank next to my 10g nano.

As far as i know, you me and cocoa are the only members of the elite firebelliedtoad club.
I was thining 2/3 land 1/3 water, some larger pebbles, and i am thinking i am going to try a moss. Do you know if they make pellets for them?

I dnt knw...
I wanted to use moss but the way I want the tank it would be a MESS if I used moss... for now I have a fake log a reptile net thingy a rock and a pile of stones as my dry land spots the rest is all water... I posted a video of it with the vid of my 40G on the VIDEOS section on this forum.....
later I want to do 50/50 with gravel but a smooth and big gravel so it wont hurt it and on the water side I want like 4 to 5 inches of water and an internal filter sucking the water from behind some rocks and throwing it on top of the rocks just like a waterfall....
do u plan on using any heater or heat lamps?
I was going to but it got too hot in the tank too fast so I used a normal 25 watts bulb it still got too hot so I went out today and got a 15watt fluorescent bulb... it still makes the tank hotter but not as fast as the incandescent bulb...

All in the basement.
10g nanoreef and 2g are on the desk
10g high is on the minifridge
20g is on the side table
20g long toad tank is on the floor
the other 20g is on another side table
5g is on the floor since theres no sick fish
The reason i stuff them there is its the only part of the house with no hardwood flooring
And with the firebellies, one came 2 inches from being pwn3d. I Accidentally clipped the light, and it fell into 2 inches of water (harmless, light still works), and 1 toad just about got pwn3d. he was a lucky one
