myfs_54668 Posted March 30, 2001 Share Posted March 30, 2001 I am weak water with a n.e. main door. Is there a more auspicious place to put a 55 gallon aquarium than another? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted April 3, 2001 Staff Share Posted April 3, 2001 Dear Diane,Can I confirm? 55 gallons of water?This is quite alot of water.Based on the mountain and water concept, where mountain should be behind the house and water at the frontage, it would be advantages for water to be at the front of the house (providing clear space).If an aquarium is at knee height or higher, this would not be advantages to be placed at the front of the home as it no longer allows for clear space.Too much water in relation to the home is not ideal. Especially if the area of the aquarium exceeds 50 percent of the floor area of the home.For a weak water person, adding metal element would be much better than adding water.

myfs_54668 Posted April 4, 2001 Share Posted April 4, 2001 Yes, Cecil, it is a 55 gallon aquarium. I purchased a wrought iron metal stand for it if that would help. I love fish, they are so peaceful to watch. In no way does aquarium take up 50% of space, just a corner. I would just like to find the best place for it. There will not be other containers of water in my house, so what do you think? Your advise is MUCH appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Posted April 8, 2001 Share Posted April 8, 2001 Dear Diane,Usually, the preferred location is in the living room. If it is placed in the living room, preference is not to raise it too high.If you have a separate room that can hold the aquarium it is equally fine. It is best not to place the aquarium behind the house or in a room behind the house.Warmest Regards,Cecil Quote On 4/4/01 12:26:00 PM, Anonymous wrote:Yes, Cecil, it is a 55 gallonaquarium.
