My wife and I were thowing the idea around.
The new tank plan for the sump is to be in the basment.
The problem would be the heat from the fireplace. If we used industial matrial to insolate the back of the fireplace that would stop the heat from ther aquarium. We don't use the fire place to often, its more for show then for heat. The front heat form the fireplace would be the problem.
The aquarium would be no more then 24"-27" deep so it would be lower then the one I have now.
