    LOL, that is a good one. Just remember, just because you keep discus and want to know your water perimeters doesn't mean you aren't crazy.

    Man that is pretty cool! The house looks amazing! I'm sure it will be even better with a bunch of tanks in it

    Very nice Holly, you and your husband and your fish will be happy there for sure! Gee you are lucky with that good water, not so here with us. I have never lived with good discus water. Only good African Cichlid water.

    Congradulations - It looks very nice - I also like the wood floors
    One thing -"the entire house is the fish room" - is there room to build on

    Thanks!
    Yes, there is room to add on. The lot is almost 1/4 acres. I will have room for a vegetable/herb garden and we plan to add on another big room in the future on the side of the house.

    another room - fish room? I had my tanks scattered between two rooms and I just moved everything into one room - sure makes things easier

    I'd rather have tanks to look at everywhere rather than just in one room. Unless the tanks are on a centralized water system I dont think having them in one room is any different than spread out as far as maintenance goes. Why would I want to limit myself to having to be in one room to see my fish? Seems silly to me.

    Soooo much paperwork. I got emails from the escrow company, our realitor, our home loan officer with forms to fill out and sign. Also, had to get a home owners insurance policy today even though we do not close until the end of September. UGH, I am not enjoying this part of buying a house.

    Little girl, you're going to think that until the first one springs a leak when you're not home I fear. I'd build a fish room and maybe have one display tank. Oh, and if not a tank leak maybe a hose coming off a Magnum 350 or something, right Bill?
