Well at least it would be in the room and it would depend on how the rest of the room is laid out. So are you going to have TV down there? I would think that would be just as likely to get broken. If...

The size of the tank in the picture was kind of my idea of a joke but the location is still good.

You really gotta sit down and think about what you want from this tank, that is if you're actually...
