Help me decide where to place tank

Awhile ago i had asked for some help on where i should put my tank. A few people wanted to see a floor plan. Well we are finally in our new home and i have made a very quick drawing of the floor plan. My tank is 4x2x2, and it is on top floor of older house. I want it in the living room area also.

What are the blue things? Windows? Walls?

the blue things are windows. I havent checked on which way the joists are running, but being that close to an exterior wall I should be okay no matter what right??

Are any of the walls long enough to place the tank on it instead of putting it partially in front of a window?
