It can... if Anthony brings either his Black Hole, Neutron Star matter, or bag of Dark Energy into the room. It will however make a hell of a mess in the house.

The sun moves across the sky so if that window receives direct sunlight that at any time of the year or day ends up lighting your tank, it can create algae problem. I have no idea how much light shines through that window or which way it faces. This is just a heads up. Ignore this and the previous post if you wish. I don't care anymore. Ta ta
