Whew... At least it's a 150.

I told my boyfriend the crowntail betta I brought home was abandoned on an endcap as a reshop at Walmart when really I went looking at the fish. I was going to get another female but man was this a pretty fish. And he just looked so sad. Healthy looking though. Pictures will come once he's all set up.

yeah I went a little overboard but parameters are good and everybody gets along just fine, but as I'm setting up more tanks I'm moving fish out of the 150 and into the others rather than buying new stock, so I'm slowly making amends one new set up at a time
 
75 koi from 10" to about 30" I know all there names. Can't make a guess how many africans in a 180. 5 of the koi in a 150 QT tub and 4 africans in a 20 gal tank in the garage. To much work but I can't help it. As far as my wife getting upset. The frist 2 did the 3rd is good.
 
Mine has to be overstocking and overfeeding , I have it under control but its hard, lol. Im actually enjoying understocked tanks more and more and I think thats the direction im starting to go. It is more relaxing.
