windows in room

[Scott G]

yeah i have 4 windows surrounding my tank that get a lot of sun all day... always streaming into the tank

should i be concerned?

im just wondering

other side of the room (still not showing one window)

The main concern would be algae growth. The sunlight can cause algae to go nuts.

Nice room! Must be great for doing HOMEWORK and PROJECTS and having STUDY GROUPS.

Seriously, I agree with Steve's algae comment. And, if the tank gets more than an hour of direct sunlight, watch for temperature fluctuations. If a chiller is not an option, you may need to have air conditioning on a month before and a month after the rest of the house.
