Hehe, when that tank shows up and you start to bring it in the house your going to be thinking to yourself "Oh, wow that's big"! [smilie=surprised.gif]
One action I took to get a size perspective was that before my tank was setup I went ahead and taped off the floor where the tank/stand would be located to get an idea of the size and what obstable might come into play."]
Yeah, we did that as I originally wanted it to be 8' in length but realized that might be a bit too much (well, that's what the wife said, I thought it would be fine). We put some frog tape on the wall too so we would have an idea of what it would look like but still, I think I'll only fully appreciate it once it gets here. I do need to call up the Salvation Army for them to pick-up the sofa and loveseat set in the formal living room where this is going to go though. Tank first, then we'll figure out how much room is left for furniture and what would work well for viewing. [smilie=smile.gif]
