Location, Location, Location

So you have decided on a tank. It's time to determine where we are going to place it. There are a couple of points on this. First, you want to place your tank in a location that is not going to be hit by direct sunlight. Direct sunlight is really bad and will give you an uncontrollable algae problem. Second, you want to place your tank in a location that is free from constant traffic. Your inhabitants will prefer a quieter existence and will thank you for it. Placing your tank in a high traffic area such as a hallway will give your tank friends unneeded stress. Finally, make sure that the location you choose can support the large weight of the tank. Tanks are heavy so make sure that your floor will be able to support the weight.
