Marine Tank in Bedroom

[ckwhon]

hi guys just want to know the answers and reasons from u guys.... this is one question troubling mi.... if really causes harm i might want to move the tank to my living room....

[]v[edia]

juz dun put it near to elec. appliances

[ervine]

mine is next to my hifi, near my computer.. so far nothing.... *cross fingers*...

depends on how big a tank also...

[RockyBoy]

I'm not sure about the question. Is it due to salt spray etc? In long run the salt spray will corrode those electronic parts if the electronics eqipment are close to the tank.

Tank better to be stand a side with other Elec. eqipments, cos u don't know when U sump were be overflow due to power failure ...or .....??

[CalciumReef]

when you make a sump you should calculate the amount of water flowing into the sump to prevent an overflow when the return pump is switched off...not only when power trips

Of course it will harm electronic equipments. Even freshwater would. Don't get any electronic equipment be in contact with water.

i think best to have a top cover to aviod water from splashing out

well my 2ft cube tank is just beside my tv set... what i am thinking is will the salt spray causes rust and corrode the parts of the tv set.... if really will cause harm then i will need to do a major move to the living room...

better do something to block it

[lightningstrike]

putting aside whether it will cost harm to ur elect appliances, i heard having a tank in the bedroom is bad fengshui...... but what the heck. i still keep my FW tank in my bedroom....

[ckwhon]

yah i did read abt the fengshui thingy.... saying that will affect the flowing of the dunno what QI that will disturb our sleeping somehow or rather... before marine tank i was rearing luohan in my bedroom... not one but two tanks...

but now i placed my marine tank just next to my tv set... dunno whether after few mths my tv set starts to go hay wire... or even my pc which is about 3m away...
