[animalzrok2]

what do you think is the maximum number of fish tanks up in running for you to own?

You mean like ever, in my entire life? I don't see how I could answer that..... you never know what's going to happen with this hobby.

currently have 180 tanks and just purchased 75 more 30 gallon tanks. It's safe to say I AM ADDICTED!

I don't think you can have a max number of tanks. I only have six right now... I would love to have more!!

I would love to have a hundred, but realistically, I would say around ten. Three or four being 30-100 gallon and the rest nano tanks. I would love to spend all day cleaning and taking care of animals, but that's not what will pay for the bills for me, sadly.

Literally a ton+

no such thing as too many! I would love to have a house full of aquariums!

If there is still room in the house to live, then obviously there is room for more tanks, you can never have too many!

takes about 1/2 hour to feed all the fish. I make my own food for them.

 

[animalzrok2]

That might really save me some $$$. You should share your recipe..

1-2 months ago, I wanted 15+ tanks (each 30+ gallons).

Then I talked to regular down-to-earth people and coworkers about my hobby. Now I just want to own about 5 tanks. There's more I want to do in life other than taking care of all of these fish tanks.

I was shocked when I read this, that is 255 tanks! I'd love to see pics! I'm def checking out your profile!

You must have a water changing schedule! So many tanks a day? How long do you spend cleaning tanks per day, assuming you don't clean them all in the same day.

Sorry for the questions, just very interesting!

Umm...Okay. I think obsessive would be the better description here. Unless you're making a living from breeding, me thinks that's a bit over the edge.....


Myself, I'm just getting back into it after a ~20 year hiatus, so just at a single 29gal community tank right now while I re-learn all my mistakes & learn all the new technology. Getting ready to set up a controlled/pressurized CO2 system to dive into plants for my first time. Me & the wife are already discussing how to move furniture around to maximize space in the living room for two 75's, the 29, and a 28 nano reef. It's nice when the spouse gets into it as well...
