Hmmmm...I'd say that's a personal preferance. And depends on the setup of your house. I have one tank in my living room. And one in the entryway, which is really technically the livingroom. When the dog runs around or jumps the tanks shake a bit but not enough to collapse tunnels. I hope. I keep saying I want a crabby room one day but honestly, even though I can always look at them with the camera, I like seeing them, even just the tank, where I spend most of my time.

A bedroom can work - unless your a light sleeper! If you have an in home office or study, that would be a good place as well since its naturally a pretty quite area.

Having it against an inside wall will help keep the temperature stable. (As opposed to an outside wall, where on the other side is outdoors.)
