Set up for system if $$ was no problem

I'd want a house designed with a huge basement full of tanks of different sizes. Lots and lots of breeder and growout tanks for my bettas and a huge barracks system for the males. The BF would want larger tanks, and a huge 3000+ show tank, or 2 :) I could go on and on... but I'll stop now :p
 
I don't really want a huge tank, anything over 125 is just going to be more work then I need. But I do want a lot of tanks and as of late I have been making thie dream come true.

Right now I have the 65 hex setup and running. Over the next month I will have up and running
1 55gl
2 50gl
1 30gl

and now I may get a 80 gl for a killer price

So now I guess I might need a new dream?
 
My boyfriend just designed a house that had a room with a huge tank that went from the floor to the ceiling, and covered 2 adjacent walls and about 3 feet thick. thats pretty dreamy to me... :) And he thought it was a pain in the *** cuz he no like fish :(
 
Dream huh, money no problem?

Dreams...ahh...well, my dream is simply to get my new 125 (72x18) up and running. Have a friend who owns a custom cabinetry shop, so they're building my stand and canopy. It's going to be done in natural oak to match the custom bar they built me a few years ago. Can't wait!!! In the meantime I just need to figure out what I want to do with it. Ugh...so many options. Lol, I like to fish for Bass, so I told my husband I was going to put a few in and go fishing in the basement.
 
I would definitely go along with the new house built to accomidate the 400~500 gal tropical reef tank which would be a walk around in the middle of the room. Not sure where the working parts would go..maybe have to build it into a wall.
DH and I play the "when we win the lottery" game. the rest of this place would include a stable for the horses and heated dog kennel runs attached to the house so I could take in all the boxer dogs that need rescued!! :p
