Trying to find a good spot in my room for a few flight cages but i’m not sure where. The cube shelves will be going in the wardorbe.

You could move your bed against the wall and have the flight cages on the wall where the cube shelf is/was. You could also fit one where the tv is if you got a narrower TV stand, had it on the other side, and moved the cardboard box. Would probably be a tight fit to the end of your bed, but you wouldn't need to get to the other side anyways.

Would there be room for 3-4 cages?

My suggestion would be..

Turn the bed and have it where the TV currently is, feet closest to the window.
Mount the TV on the wall in the corner where the paler dreamcatcher is, put all the stuff off the TV stand in the drawers in the closet.
Now you have room under the windows for cages plus the space where the cages are now.
If you can´t mount the TV on the wall, then keep the cube drawers and put the TV on there, or put the cube drawers in the closet and put your TV stand there in it´s place.

While you are trying to work it all out I am wondering what the chances are that you can find some natural perches for your birds, I noticed they only have dowels.
I do think moving your bed will give you better options for cage placements.

Baking branches in the oven will also work to disinfect. 300f degrees for 30 mins for smaller branches. Will kill any bugs too.

Give them a good scrub with hot soapy water, vinegar if you'd like. You can leave the bark on or remove it. Then pop them in the oven.

Here is a list of plants and trees that are safe.

I’ve got a 2ft tank that i’ve been wanting to move to my room, its got a lid, just a few holes cut out. I thought of putting it where the boxes are but it would be next to the cage. It can stay in the lounge room if thats a problem.

Branches are baked on a low heat. Nichole said 300 F, which is 150 C.

I wouldn´t put more animals in your room, simply because of how small it is. On top of the space issue, a tank can lead to other problems depending on what is housed inside.

You should be cautious with aquatic tanks around birds, even if they have lids. Those lids can usually be easily lifted. If your bird happened to fall in, there's a risk of drowning.
