Where do you store your supplies?

I have been at this hobby now for over two months. In the process I have aquired a ton of foods, chemicals, testing supplies, etc. They are just hanging out beside the tank and I have been looking for something to put them in and keep them organized. What does everyone here use?

we were having the same issue, so we moved a bookshelf into the living room and put TWO bookshelf tanks on the top two shelves and supplies on the bottom 3 shelves.

this is a good way to add more TANKS AND organize supplies

I keep some of my stuff inside the storage area of one of my aquarium stands. I also have a 2 drawer file cabinet that I was really only using 1 drawer of for other stuff, so the 2nd drawer also became fish supply storage.

I have a large rectangular basket that sits under the table that my 30 gal is on. Most of my stuff fits in it and I just toss a couple of throw pillows on top to hide everything. I do have my 2 buckets and gravel vacs in the pantry (and everyone knows not to touch them!)

Most of my supplies fits inside the aquarium stands. I built the stands for my 20 and 29 gallon tanks so I gave them large doors and storage areas to fit my 5 gallon water change buckets and other supplies.

If you need room for storing supplies, I suggest you buy a second tank so you have another tank stand for storage

Most of my stuff is beside my sump underneath my main tank hidden by the stand. I also keep some testing stuff and such in small cabinet in the basement.

I keep my meds and water supplies in a plastic shoe size container that I can carry to whichever tank I'm working on. That is then stored on a shelving unit in a closet along with my other supplies and buckets. Thers are a few things in a kitchen cabinet that I refer to often like my turkey baster for getting out little things, and my magnifying glass cause I can't see close, and a small container to empty into. But I only have my 3 tanks so far, I have a 20 gal. that I'll start after my vacation.

Basically just all over my room, my floor, on top of any open surfaces. My parents won't even go into my room any more.
