turn your spare bedroom into an aquarium ?

You simply can't turn your spare bedroom into an aquarium
I don't think it would be smart
You would have to tear down all the walls
And replace with glass, for a start

The floor would definitely need reinforcement
To handle all the extra weight
You wouldn't want upstairs to become downstairs
That definitely would not be great

And once you have glassed and sealed
Every corner of the room, every seam
You would need the bedroom next to it
To store all the equipment to keep it clean

There will be pumps and filters
To keep the water moving and fresh
You will need a great water supply
To fill it, a fire hose would be best

A heater would be a necessity
To keep the water temperature right
It will also heat up your entire house
That will keep you up all night

So now you need air conditioning
To keep the house cool enough to bear
And the worlds biggest dehumidifier
To keep moisture out of the air

You would need to insulate the walls
To keep the noise level down
You wouldn't want neighbours complaining
Especially those on the other side of town

So once you got all this done
Just to fulfill your simple wish
You will be in a sea of debt
And you still haven't bought a fish

So after careful consideration
It's a silly idea, I see that is true
It would make much more sense
To turn it into a petting zoo
