I knew this day had to come, but it is a massive job so I put it off...until now. I moved my arcade into a room that used to be a garage. It is an easy in and out of the house. The problem is that is also the room that my aquarium is in. I know what you are all thinking. Obviously I should incorporate the aquarium into an arcade cabinet. The problem is that it is too small for most of the widescreen builds here. It is only six feet wide. I am going to move the tank into my basement. The thought of a tank failure is in the back of my head. 150 gallons of water on the floor would not be good for my games. There is also the fact that I have had these fish since they were the size of guppies. They are 7 years old now, and I am a little nervous about shocking them with a transfer like this. I have to drain the tank completely and remove the gravel. I have a hundred gallon tank to house them until the move is complete so I am fairly confident the move won't kill them. It would be a shame to lose any of them. I have 4 koi in the tank. |

Why dont you build a arcade machine around the fish tank!? Then you save space, get 2 of your fave things in one place and nobody will of ever done it before!! Cool eh!? |

:cheers: I love maintaining aquariums. Just wish I had the time. It seems like within a year, every tank I stock ends looking like it is filled with swamp water from the legion of doom's headquarters. |
