Here's my fish room in progress

 

[threnjen]

I love your fish room. Looooove it.

 

[LostInFish]

Thanks a bunch do you have a setup to?

 

[threnjen]

Not like that. I'm only recently into fishkeeping so we just have one tank, although I am quite proud of it.

It's a 90g with a 29g sump underneath, with all custom built filtration. It has been a blast. Ignore the up-top doors, I still need to stain them to match the rest of the cabinet.

We do technically have a 2nd tank. It's my hospital tank and currently housing a sick cory.
I think my husband is JUST starting to get an inkling that I'm not going to take it down and am going to use it for something else when the cory is done....

Multiple tank syndrome seems all to easy. I find myself looking around my house and imagining what I could fit and where.

Nice job on the tank looks beautiful. Glad to see I'm not the only one with the itch. If I was rich I would have a huge tank made in the wall of my room then I would never get anything done because I would be day dreaming while watching my tank.

Thanks!
I know what you mean. I've looked at a few walls and though "what if..."
Then I remember that's crazy talk!
I do hope to have another big tank someday. Maybe something even bigger than a 90...
One can dream!!

What kinds of tanks are all of yours, ecosystem wise?

 

[LostInFish]

I have a fully planted 150 gallon with discus, a 180 gallon with African cichlids, a 100 gallon with a tiger shovel nose catfish, and a 33 gallon breeding tank with boulivian rams

I am! I have actually be wrestling with this because I have realized I will never be satisfied. There is always just one more fish. I am thinking my new years resolution is no more purchasing fish for 1 year.

Really liking your room money maker. Must be a second job changing water for so many tanks, you must be doing them daily? Nice pics

Yo tang (moneymaker), I know it's a very expensive hobby, and nobody understand us. I have 3 aquariums, 30g hightech FW, 20g hightech SW, and a 10g lowtech FW (QT) in my 3 1/2 appartement.

People say to me they won't have all this in their home, but they like to see what I'm doing, and they're saying it's probably my hobby (to justify my addiction). You know, I have a lot of hobby, I'm brewing beer, growing a medicinal plant, 3 aquariums, playing lot of computer... I like doing this !

According to your picture, you have a lot of room for your hobby, and I think you understood what's a good aquascape. I would like to come your home and see all what you did. But you're not my neihbourg, and living far from here -.-

 

[mrvincent]

Do you put towels on your tanks when you listen to a movie ? (To remove lighting)

 

[severum mama]

That looks really nice!

Here's where most of our tanks are. It's still a work in progress but we're off to a good start. You'll want to mute your speakers.

That's funny people love to watch my fish but they all say the same thing to many tanks. I like having the 4 of them anymore makes for to many water changes lol

I got into the hobby about 2 years back and I've become addicted. I currently have only two 55 gallons but plan on getting a 125 and 180 once I get my basement finished. I find myself constantly daydreaming about having more tanks... Yeah weird,lol

I use pyton water changer, very effective when you have multi/big tanks.

And yeah, people see my 10 pounds CO2 bottle and they alway say: "Is it to do the same job as an airpump?"

That's not a 400$ pressurized system to mimic a 20$ airpump I anwsers ^.^
