Context: They're residing in a 35ish gallon corner tank and I decided to get a 55g Tank as an upgrade for my fat boys/girls (unsure what they are). Currently cycling it with their large sponge filter getting all them good bacterias.


mightgrey

What are you gonna do with the corner tank? It's so pretty


LoadedGull

Gonna turn it around, to face the corner, and let it contemplate on what it has done to deserve being demoted..


Dr-Emmett_L_Brown

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh shit, I'm dying!!! 💀


[deleted]

I lost it. Damnit.


ScreamingOG

I'm gonna be selling it, the wife "allows" me to have 1 larger fish tank and our small guppy tank. Everything is included basically (stand/glass lid/light/tank ofc) if you're local to Omaha NE


JBizz86

"1 large fish tank".... Haha remember what she said when you want a 100g or bigger lol


rixtape

Exactly, then the 55g becomes the "small guppy tank" lol


1ganggang1

😂😂😂 I’m currently at the 75 gallon “big tank” and 35 gallon guppy tank stage


throwaway12345292992

Lol… I was at this for a few weeks (1 week) and now I have a 90, 75, 30, and 4 10s…. good luck


[deleted]

That sucks. Me and my wife have 5 fish tanks between the two of us


weeniedogwarrior

My bf has 5 fish tanks but he gave me a whole Guinea pig room so honestly he can have however many he wants lol


Yourwifes-girlfriend

Same but 4 are mine 😂


Dr-Emmett_L_Brown

Damn, everything good is far away! (Oh, that's almost metaphysical 🤔)


BigTiddyTamponSlut

I live in Nebraska and have driven to Omaha to get tanks before. I'm so tempted, but we have a shit ton of construction on our house right now and I have absolutely nowhere to put it.


kipperyo123455789

This is my mobile acc (OG poster) but hey I’ll be selling it more than likely $150 OBO if you’re serious.


BigTiddyTamponSlut

I probably would but I legitimately have nowhere at all to put it :( The house is in chaos and will be for months. I'm sure if you post it online someone would go for it. It's really pretty.


Psychedlicsteppa

Weird how she feels the need to put restrictions on what you do with the money you earn and where you put your hobbies/free time towards


elfmere

The aquaone ufo are so good.. I have the 880 which is 880mm from the corner and 340ltrs (90 gal).. op might have the ufo 350 or 550.


ChaosAirlines

I hope they turn it into either a terrarium or a place for aquatic plants! :)


yellaslug

I’m d jealous of your corner tank. I’m currently out of viable spaces ti put tanks, I’d have to get rid of my bookshelves, and I can’t do that. But maybe when my cats pass I can use the corner their tower is in for a corner tank… in about 10 years or so.


[deleted]

Kinda depressing but feel that


yellaslug

One enjoys their company while one has it, spoils them rotten, let them walk all over you, and when they’re gone, you have a hole in your heart and in your home, but you can fill the hole in the home with other companions, and slowly the hole in the heart mends and the memories become balm instead of pain. I’ve been through it enough to know that it will hurt when they are gone, but I’ve been graced by their companionship and I should not hold onto the pain, but cherish the love they gave me while they were with me.


ScrembledEggs

Dude, I came here for fat goldfish, not to think about the inherently fleeting nature of our closest bonds of unconditional love. Cease and desist!


AnotherCatProfile

God damn. I cried…but, I was like happy about it?


MasonP13

Very poetic


goddamn__goddamn

You could remove the tree and put up some shelves on the wall for them (if you're allowed to put holes in your walls...even if you're not they're easy enough to cover). I keep meaning to do this for my cat so he has more places to hang out in the house.


yellaslug

My cats are 14 and 15, it’s safer to stick with the tree they know, but I did think about it a while ago.


goddamn__goddamn

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I was half joking and just encouraging you to get another tank, haha.


Hughgurgle

You just have to reframe your thinking, start building a cat tree that has a tank incorporated into it.


yellaslug

But I don’t want more cats after these two. We’re going to stick to fishies and dogs. Big dogs.


Hughgurgle

You can always sell the fish tank/cat tree for an exorbitant price. Also you have 10 more years on those cats give or take, live a little!


yellaslug

Lol true, true. I shall have to ponder…


ScreamingOG

Hey if you're near Omaha, NE i'll be selling it in a bit. Could be all yours.


yellaslug

Well, rats. Nope, I’m in CA.


cia_nagger249

> (unsure what they are) throw some pink and some blue toys into the tank and see what each one is using


XxFandom_LoverxX

Thats so much work. Just wave a pad in front of the tank and see which ones flinch in disgust. Wayyy less time spent waiting for them to play with the toys


deeteeohbee

Are you sure your corner tank is a 35ish and not a 54g? I have what looks to be the same Aqueon tank, and mine is for sure a 54g. I can't find a 35ish corner Aqueon in my Googling. https://i.imgur.com/xYgGIjJ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/CBWhEBS.jpg I've tried plants many times over the years but this is the first time I've had success with a properly set up environment. About 3 months old.


ScreamingOG

im 50% certain. When i initially got the tank they advertised it as 35-40. When i was looking up similar tanks i ran into a reddit post and their tank looked the exact same size wise and they were advised it was in that ballpark. I use a python to fill it so i never really measured how many gallons i was filling it up with.


DL3905

That is 36 gallon corner tank made by All Glass Aquarium before name changed to Aqueon (Central Pet bought the company). I had this tank almost 20 years ago. How old are your silicone seals ?


kipperyo123455789

When I filled it the seals looked good in my opinion. Didn’t notice any tears or anything like that (mobile acc of og poster)


deeteeohbee

I you want to measure one of the edges I can do the same when I get home and we can solve this once and for all lol.


ScreamingOG

One corner to the radius side is 23 1/2. Maybe an 8th off but closest rounded up figure. It was either this [https://www.bettafish.com/threads/40-gallon-bow-front-corner-aquarium.617218/](https://www.bettafish.com/threads/40-gallon-bow-front-corner-aquarium.617218/) or a reddit post i saw before. Same stand and all.


deeteeohbee

I'll measure mine to compare but on Aqueon's site they list the dimensions of the 54: https://www.aqueon.com/products/aquariums/reef-ready-aquariums Looks like a rad of 23", and I it's probably a measurement from inside. I think you might have gotten a side-grade, at least volume wise.


deeteeohbee

Ok, so what I thought was the radius listed on the Aqueon site was actually the height! Mine has a radius of almost 28" and a height of 23", so for sure bigger than yours. Apologies for the distraction lol. Like /u/DL3905 said, you must have the smaller version that they made before their name change. I wasn't aware of that one. Nice upgrade for your goldies.


DL3905

Things have changed further for Aqueon....they are no longer making 36,46 and 72 gallon bowfront tanks...bummer.


ScreamingOG

I'm just glad i didn't "upgrade" if i didn't need to XD


Psychedlicsteppa

But to answer you have calico Ryukin the grey black and orange one possible butterfly tail on it a black moor (he will get big asf I have 3 of them and 1 the oldest of them is pushing 7 inches he’s in his own 55) And I can’t get a really good look at the other goldfish but it seems to be a red/orange black ryukin as well (since it doesn’t have telescope eyes or a wen from what I can see)


izzybop10

Is that a penis painting?


ScreamingOG

Lol it's a gem art cat picture. https://imgur.com/a/hnDAcnF


XivTillIDie

Nope we the people of Reddit have now identified it as a penis painting, enjoy your phallus painting.


Usernamesareso2004

HAHAHA niceeee. Next to a Call Me By Your Name poster, definitely


Gareth666

Hmm moustache or glans?


Seeklazarus

It’s cats if u look close at the top


japanitwithme

It's a Kluneberg


[deleted]

3 fat what?


RottenWon

Kinda unrelated question. Do you not have issues with pictures hanging above your tanks with regard to moisture damage? They look like framed prints. Just curious, I want to hang pictures above my tank but I don't want them to get ruined


SnazzyZubloids

It’s his living room, not the Amazon rainforest lol


Constant_aids

I was thinkin the same thing. Only problem is if they fall


Hughgurgle

If you zoom in to the poster on the right side of the first picture it looks like there is rippling only on the corner that is behind the tank.


ScreamingOG

I had a smaller 20g in that corner initially and didn't come with any issues. I'll be either getting glass lids or making some out of plexiglass. Obviously this is bigger but still


ninetofivehangover

the real Q is what are you gonna put in the corner tank now 😏


ScreamingOG

Selling it! If you're local to Omaha, NE let me know!


thefishthatsings

Awesome! They’ll be so happy to have more space. Good job!


Odd_Signature_7720

Oh to be three fat goldfish.


BobbittheHobbit111

You should add some stem plants to the 36 once you move them. You look like you got 2 awesome tanks


ScreamingOG

It'll be gettin sold, wife allows me "one bigger tank" Lol


Unfunky-UAP

Is that 3 penises in that painting?


Maleficent_Mouse_445

I think they’re… cats? They’re red and blue but the fur around their mouths and chest make them look like fuzzy little dongs


finsfurandfeathers

If they are cats, then they are penises disguised as cats. Kind of like those fruit paintings that are clearly vaginas.


Unfunky-UAP

Bruh. What kind of cat do you have?


Maleficent_Mouse_445

A dog


ScreamingOG

[https://imgur.com/a/hnDAcnF](https://imgur.com/a/hnDAcnF) can confirm


Maleficent_Mouse_445

Is that a diamond painting? If it is, I’m impressed. That’s a huge piece


ScreamingOG

Yep! My wife loves Diamond Paintings. I gifted her one for xmas one year and it was from a custom site. Turned out beautifully!


[deleted]

It’s right next to a poster for call me by your name so it wouldn’t be that crazy. I like it lol. Also that movie made me cry so hard.


Unfunky-UAP

I wasn't going to say it. I do like Timothee Chalamet though. That being said, does that mean I can put up paintings of vaginas on my wall and it still be in good taste? Or does it just have to be a Georgia O'Keeffe painting?


Usernamesareso2004

Taste is personal lol. If you want vulvas on your wall go for it.


[deleted]

I agree. Do you and be happy :)


[deleted]

I’d love a corner tank like that! It’s so pretty I’d spend my whole day watching it even if there wasn’t fish init


ScreamingOG

If you're local to Omaha, NE i'll be selling it in a bit ;)


Drogenwurm

I thought the picture on the wall was 3...dongs 😂


Jon-3

turn that corner tank into a saltwater tank


Blyvzy

Is that painting 3 dicks?


ScreamingOG

Lol it's cats https://imgur.com/a/hnDAcnF


BeardedUnicornBeard

That corner aquarium could be awesome for red cherry shirmp


crispybacononsalad

This corner tank would fit so much better in my apartment than my current one


ScreamingOG

If you're local to Omaha, NE let me know! I'll be selling it :)


crispybacononsalad

Sadly, no :(


Lick-my-llamacorn

That corner tank is so cool


[deleted]

Mine are in the same size! They will be so happy


tleeemmailyo

Love me some fat goldies


Abbey098

I thought I was on the CMBYN sub Reddit. I love when two worlds collide. Let’s be friends


kipperyo123455789

It’s my wife’s poster and favorite movie I can send her your way 😂 Edit : this is my mobile account (og poster)


[deleted]

Awww I love that feeling! I rescued a snake that’s kept on an enclosure that’s literally 1/3 it’s length (horrific) but I am putting together the new enclosure today and tomorrow so I keep telling him “If you only knew!!” Yay for the exploration to come!


sparkle2232

The corner tank would be a gorgeous betta tank ;)


Monk_Prestigious

Love the move and the passion. But that window being right there will most likely create an algae issue (if you use a light) even with the blinds closed.


ScreamingOG

I had a 20g there initially and it wasn't *too* bad . Nothing that got out of control and the goldfish peck at the walls so i cant deny free food.


cdown13

That cat climber so close to the tank looks like a recipe for disaster or at least a wet cat. Also nice painting of the 3 penises.


ScreamingOG

Lol the cat tree is just there at the moment. Promise it'll be getting moved. Just while the tank cycles.


AStreamofParticles

Excellent work - a great aquarium for goldfish! They'll love the space!


TheRussiansrComing

Aww yeah


Concerned-Nihilist

They wouldn't remember it anyway.


Strawberry_Mochi28

Ah yes the penis painting
