What room do you keep your favorite tank in?

Just curious. Mine is in my bedroom. a gorgeous 40B. I've been thinking about moving it into the living room though, but that would be such a PITA.

Might not stay too red but if u have good substrate and use seachem ferts and take care of ur tank it will turn a nice brownish red which looks good compared to typical green low light stem plants
