Thanks for the idea, but its a no. I dont have a basement. My house is two floors no basement. upstairs, downstairs, and slightly more down stairs to our 2nd living room. The pipe would have to go through the floor to get to my room. I think I have a plan. My new battle is the feeding tank. I ordered a 12 gallon eclipse system for shrimp/crabs and the problem Im having now is that she wont let me use it. I gave her the money for it, and she ordered for me, but after I get it, she says no more fish tanks. Im trying to calmly work something out, but shes shooting down all ration. She finally said, that if I cover my floor with a tarp, I can set up the 12 gallon tank. At that my dad said no, because it would look rediculous. Im at a loss here... Im so confused, and Im hiding before I blow up and start screaming about how she makes no sense and she takes a hammer to my tanks.
