Now look what I did!

[FISHSHROD]

Turned my kitchen into a fishroom :) Growing out my Pineapple Swordtail babies in the 2 tens and more baby cories in the planted.

[BettaFishMommy]

i'd be wary of having the tanks so close to the stove. why not put them both up on the countertop where the bar stools are for now and run all the electrical through a cord tidy tube thing?


edit - dang, do you ever keep your kitchen clean! lol.

[moePR15]

looks nice =] im gonna need to set up a baby tank soon.. i have like 25-30 tiny platy fry in a breeder net at the moment lol

[cam191919]

why not ditch the hoods so the two match the first one...are those hot mags on each tank?

[odinthejd]

So lucky I wish my kitchen looked like that.

[67chevelle]

Who needs counter space?

[Chrisinator]

I think it's time you make a fish bridge.

[rich311k]

That is great. Also one of the cleanest kitchens I have ever seen.

[Rbishop]

Looking good.

[FISHSHROD]

Thanks gang. Cam , the light above the planted tank is the t-5 ho built in under the cabinet. I don't have room to do that on the other tanks and wouldn't want to anyway. Yes , it would look nice. Yes, hot mags on the tens.

Why do people always make comments about how clean my kitchen is ?? Are you not suppose to clean up after your self ? I can not stand things not clean , is it just me or are most guys slobs ?

Betta, I only use the one burner on Sunday mornings, it doesn't get hot hot hot.

[snoopy65]

Looks awesome....but is that kitchen used for cooking or just keeping fish? I have never seen my kitchen that clean!

Haha, I don't think I'm a slob, but I do cook a great deal and there's always a bit of clutter. Spices, etc.

Your kitchen looks more then clean it looks...unused!

[Jill-O]

Great job!!!

[Just Prince]

You must be single and eat out a lot. Their is no room to cook.

[Dwarf Puffers]

Loving your kitchen. What's up with the poor little lonely cory fry in the 10s? :(

[ayra321]

lol thats funny,the fish are even where you eat!

and that is an uber clean kitchen!!!knowing myself i probably would have figured out a way to stain that counter somehow :)

[TammypoBM]

I love it! Looks great!!

[Jaykit]

Always great to see the ideas you come up with for your tanks fishrod.

[Sevast0]

Just don't cook any fish in there! They'll start rebeling if they see you cooking fish!

I wish I had a clean kitchen. We have a few house guests that won't leave (they were supposed to leave MONTHS ago) and they are a horrible mess! They just take over and spread the mess all around the house!

[CrimsonBlush]

Wow fishshrod, that's some kitchen!

[FISHSHROD]

Thanks again for all the CLEAN comments. I guess my X wife rubbed off on me about keeping things clean. I don't understand though, don't you all clean up stuff when you are done with it. I just did major water changes on all 5 tanks today and the kitchen gets heavily used when I do but now it still looks like it does in the pic, I cleaned it all up :)



And Jaykit , don't forget to double SH.

Dwarf, they are in there to keep the sand cleaned up and doing a great job .

[Bubbles2112]

HA! I love the look of your kitchen......I'll just call it the 'European minimalist' look :dance2:

Your tanks look very good to!!

[bluekrissyspike]

looks good. most people have clutter all over. spices, paper towels, a knife block, containers for large utensils, ect. i think that's what everyone means. i still think my kitchen is clean(i am always disinfecting and wiping things), it just looks well used. yours is immaculate.

[jm1212]

very nice

[Hollygirl]

The tanks look great!

[Hollygirl]

What kind of lighting is over the heavily planted tank? VERY nice.

I originally built in an undercabinet 55 watt pc AH SUPPLY kit 6700k but when that bulb burnt out I changed the fixture to a 48 watt t-5 HO 6700K.

Methinks they need some cleaning cory companionship! :p:

[theicequeen]

[FISHSHROD]

Ok Ladies , I showed you mine now you show me yours :) Feel free to hijack this thread with kitchen pics .

[BettaFishMommy]

this is what my kitchen at my old apartment looked like:


117999


in my new condo i've got just the planted tank on the end of the dining room and the other is now in the living room.

[Nolapete]

Don't let him fool ya, that kitchen is in a model home.

[THE V]

I had a kitchen that clean like that once years ago. I had a 450 sq ft apartment on the 22nd floor downtown. I was single and just graduated from college with my first job.

I had a set of 4 plates/cups/bowls, 2 pans, a cookie sheet (pizza), and a set of silverware. All of them could fit in the small dishwasher. The kitchen was always clean because there wasn't much to dirty up.

The 15 gallon fishtank was on the dresser right next to the kitchen. With 4 comet goldfish in it and a 20W incandescent bulb for lighting.

The bed, a chair, and a bookcase I made in high school wood-shop made up the furnishings. The TV was on a Burger King box full of books with a blue blanket wrapped around it for aesthetics.

Then I got married and it's never been that clean or tidy since.
