Get a big tank that constantly sucks up a lot of money, or a couple, it calms you down some.

Not always, I got the big tank, then kept adding more tanks. Thats why I ended up with 47 of them.

Least it is not 47 cats

47 tanks, wow!!! My question is, where do you keep them all?? Trouble is there are so many cool fish that cant be kept together. I can see myself getting another tank or 2 :-). i would like to somehow set it up like they do at the lfs. Have maybe 3 stacked on top of each other. One day.......

I turned the dining room into a fish room, the only tank not in there is the 220. I have racks of 15 gal tanks 1 has 15 tanks the other has 10 then there is a 100 gal., 90 gal some 55's 2 racks of 20 gals, a 26 long sitting on cinder blocks. There is also a couple of 29's and 10 gal. Most are breeder tanks and only 2 have a community, one of cichlids and one tropicals.

I used to have cats, persians that I was breeding and showing, but health kept me from traveling anymore so sold most of the cats, kept 2 till they died of old age.

harveya · 08-16-2011, 01:56 AM

that must take some time looking after them all :-). Sounds pretty cool though.

Gizmo · 08-16-2011, 10:50 AM

I've got three tanks and I'm at critical mass as far as maintenance and enjoyment, between work and school. I've got a 55 sitting in the garage that I got for free though. One day....
