I have just moved into my new apt. and am starting to re-set up aquariums
and get things together again. One spot I would sort of like to put one of
the aquariums is against a wall with a heater strip going across the floor
for the apt. Would this affect the tank much and is this a good idea to put
the aquarium there? If not I do have anthnor spot picked out I guess. All

Ask the landlord first. Most apartments have a 10g max.

I don't know where you live, but here in Colorado it gets darn cold in the
winter at times. Sometimes it's cold enough that I've had to crank the heat
up pretty high to get the rest of the apartment comfortable. I would be
concerned that this might be a problem here but ymmv.

Check with the landlord. I live in an apartment and have a 55g and I know
some other tenants with fish tanks larger than 10g. But if I get 'caught', I
go in 3 days, or the fish tank goes in 3 days. What the other tenants have
means nothing.

And it's a real fluke on getting caught. Right now I'm waiting for the
maintance man to fix some electrical problem in the kitchen. The fish tank
is in the bedroom, but so are the circuit breakers. I got the tank covered
with several sheets and placed some empty boxes around that, trying to
disguise the tank.

You are really at the mercy of chance when you break the apartment rules. If
the maintance guy sees it, it will get reported. Him keeping his job is more
important than a tenant keeping a fish tank.

ya, thats how I found out about the guy with the 220g is through the
Landlord, she is really nice and we have renters insurance anyways cuz my
roommate has a waterbed, so that would just make her more apt to letting me
keep them here, and the fact I did ask her before we even signed the lease,
but I will check again just to be sure but then again i did just order the
55g and is supposed to arrive tom.. lol
