Hi,

Want to add some life to my work area as I spend so much time here
Used to have a 120 gallon saltwater a long time ago and saw a Bio-Cube setup at the LFS and got hooked.

Picked up a few aquariums because as I was not sure what would fit and look good.

I need to keep my desk uncluttered and zen like to offset my work

Which should I keep, and where should I put it?
Or should I try to build a custom rectangle long tank?

It must be quiet as it is so close to me.

Eclipse 5g corner tank




Bio-Cube (leaning this way, much higher quality)

I like the 4th pic down... the one with the tank off to the side. If you had it under the monitors directly in front of you, you would NEVER get any work done!

I agree with Jesse how ever I'm right handed so I would put it on the left side. keep the right side open for documents and what not. I wouldn't put it under the monitors for a couple of reasons. Moisture and access.

Let us know what you chose.

welcome to Nanotank.

Filled up the biocube today to start its cycle.

Its currently on the right hand side for setup but I think eventually I will move it under the monitors, luckily I have a steady supply of monitors and they are all under warranty so if the evaporation ruins them will get them replaced
Currently 2x22" wide screen monitors which I hope to upgrade to a single 30" as soon as I have the opportunity.

Unfortunately there is not enough room on the left side under the cannopy to fit the tank, it is too tall.

The enterance to my cube is on my right, so may leave it there so people can check it out when they walk by.

I wish there was a way to lock the lid or something. Just be sure that you dont make any enemies at work... people can do some pretty stupid things! It will be sweet to have a tank like this in your workspace. Keep us updated.

Actually switched the biocube to a 12g Aquapod
The aquapod is too big to fit on the left or right

Still cycling but I have a damsel in it now
