Oo Im Am Going To Sleep On The Couch For A Few Weeks !

[watertown28]

Yeah... I am in deep dodo. I went and got 2 more fish tanks today !

Another 55 gallon and one that is really odd shaped...Its hex shaped and not figured out how to get exactly what size it is ( besides adding a gallon at a time to it... I almost think its about 30 gallons ).

Long sotry short, I told the wife that a co worker wanted them gone, for $20. Mind you, I already have a 72 , 55, 2x 10 , and a 30. She gave me that "look" and more or less told me no more. Now what fun would it be if I listened to her all the time??!

With that said... what you all think I should do with em? I already have a 55 gallon filter ...not cycled of course. I was thinking of maybe some specie type fish like oscars... I already have the other tanks set up as community tanks, and would like something a bit more challenging .

Now that I will be on the couch for a while need some input.

get a nice duvet, would be my only input.

A good pillow is vital, sofa arms are really hard after a few hours, and you neck will ache the next day.

Your a brave man.How about pick a fish you like and doing a biotope around them. Something different to a community tank and bit more challenging.

How about getting your wife involved and asking her what she would like to see in the tank - might help restore some domestic bliss???

I have talked to her a while ago. She was falling in love with some salt water fish. So something that is very eye appealing would be in order.

As for the her being mad, sure she will be, but the tanks are in the basement... that is my place in the house ...she has the rest of the house. So its not like its cluttering up the main living areas. Plus, she will get over it, she knows I could be doing much worse stuff like going to bars ect ect, but I like my hobbies... so she lives with it more or less.

This would be to lag the tank in case the heaters fail ofc

Best suggestion yet. I'll get back to my couch now.

Hrm, she was not mad which surprised me. Maybe because I think she expected me to do it anyways ( I do this from time to time... not often... and a minor thing like this to me is not something to get to worked up about anyways )

So with that said... lets figure out what we are going to put in it.

NO guppies... I am trying to figure out what to do with the 2 I have in the 30 gallon. They are now nipping at my neons.

How about a huge betta female colony?
