It's happened before. The outflow hose from the 4 ft tank got detached somehow....and sucked out 80% of the water. My room has no carpet, and just about everything is raised an inch above the floor....so no problem there. But the water flow brought it to the sitting room...right onto the carpet! It absorbed all the water...Lol

I have also had the brackets onto the wall give way because I used screws that were too short!!! 5 nano betta tanks came crashing down!!! I now use expansion bolts...seems quite strong....it can hold the 30 in tank comfortably

I guess I can laugh at it now...but it wasnt funny then

. I dare say doing this alone might up your tanks to 15 no.s

It has crossed my mind....15 tanks?? No problem!!!!

If I were to choose only one size for all the tanks, it will be 3ft.

I like to move things around in my room....and it will be very difficult to move 3 ft tanks and bigger around. That's the third position I have tried for the 3 footer, by the way!!! I had to empty out the water in the tank each time before moving!! I think 18 in tanks are the most I can move around in the room

@ Azman
With such deep passion in fishkeeping, it is definitely better for you to plan to implement a fishroom, though presently you also sleep and live among your fishes. Having a separate fishroom is the usual way to go for many ardent fishkeepers.
