When I was a kid, we had a 55-gallon fish tank in our living room.  Since then, I've almost always had a fish tank everywhere I've lived.  Up until now, I've lived in apartments or rentals that had something like a 10-gallon limit, so my tanks have been pretty small.

Now that I live in a house that Ruth owns, I don't have the 10-gallon limit anymore.  I recently bought a 80-gallon fish tank and have been getting it going for about a month or so now.  It's quite lovely, very relaxing and a lot of fun too.  We put it in our living room and now we're spending more time in that room than ever.  Of course me being a gadgets guy, I love the fact that there is a ton of interesting gadgets I could add (and probably will), but for now my goal is to get the tank healthy (starting up a tank successfully takes some doing) and to get it well-planted.  I'll post pictures soon!
