Default Finally got my relaxing corner!

Just finished moving into our family home and talked the wife into letting me keep the tank on the main floor! This is my favourite spot in the house!

Looks good. The only issue I can see is that your chair isn't turned towards the tank.

Thanks for the nice compliments! That chair is on some slippery felt so I can turn it towards the tank in a pinch!

Highly unlikely that thermometer uses mercury, might still find a mercury thermometer in certain applications but any hobby grade glass thermometer will be alcohol filled. Easy to tell the difference, mercury is silver and metallic with a large bubble of it on the bottom, anything else would be alcohol.

Do you have foot and drink rests to complete the experience? I can see that it's just going to get easier and easier to spend hours and hours watching it.
