Where Will It End ?

[madmom]

Okay I now have a 20H gal u.s. , a 10 gal u.s. and a 2.5 gal hex. Just got the 20 this week . The tank isn't even set up yet and my daughter is already looking at the big boys; 55 gal and up. I asked where she was planning on putting it and she suggested we get rid of her brother and use his room. I stopped that fast but was tempted as he's 16 and going through a faze now and sometimes I'd like to ( LOL). I can see it now; my home with no furniture and wall to wall tanks.

I'm on 5 tanks ATM and planning on increasing that to 8 very soon

I'm SO jealous. I've been forced to stop at 2 by my husband but there's this space in the home office that would fit a 95 litre tank so well.....................................

No matter how many we have we won't be happy it'll always be "just one more" lol.

I have an 90g, 15g, 3.5g, 3.5g and 2.5g. Hoping to add a 10g, 4g and another 4g.

I know what you mean Sussexgirl. Mine said no to the 10, 2.5 and the 20. I don't think he's noticed the 20 yet (LOL).

LOL! Every time I mention I've been the LFS he tilts his head to the side and narrows his eyes at me as if to say "oh Lord what's she bought now?!!" I just slipped out to buy my 28L tank for my Platy fry but I doubt very much if he would miss a 20G! The counter side is that I'm going away on vacation next week and am pretty worried about leaving my precious fishes because friends couldn't possibly look after them like I do!!! LOL Wayne reckons he's descended in the pecking order in this house now. First it's the kids, then the fish, then me and finally him!...............................

 

[madmom]

well when he does eventually notice it I'll just tell him I'm moving the fish to the 20 so I can use the 10 for all those babies the 2.5 isn't big enough for all of them. Oops didn't tell him about the babies. Wonder what he'll say?

What man wouldn't be thrilled to know there are going to be babies in his house?!!!! Hey I wonder if anyone suffers from 'multiple pond syndrome', now that would be a trickier one!

No furniture and wall to wall tanks sounds good! We have one 20 gallon tank and only the other day I was wondering if I could persuade hubbie to flood our front room . . .

 

[madmom]

Well I think he noticed. Last night he looked at the tank for the longest time and said was it always this tall?
Poor man doesn't have a clue (LOL)

 

[trace1]

not that he really has any choice in the matter lol
we started of with a 55 litre tank & now have
300 litre 240 litre 128 litre another 4 foot 1 that i can't remember but think its about 40 uk gallons the 55 litre & two 8 litres

Tell him the tank's always been that size- he must be shrinking
