Thanks Marcie... that's really the only thing it could be that I can think of...

steez, are you sure about that? I went all gung ho on this one and it bit me in the rear. I'm right where I want to be now, with 7 tanks running

Glad you are back. Hope you the best. Your tanks and advice are always great.

Was it hard putting them up or something? How did it "bite you in the rear"
 
I set up 14 tanks and have a family and very consuming job...Didn't have time for it... never spent much time with my family when it was all going on. With 14 tanks, it's really hard to do much with them all. Instead, having only 7, I can spend a lot more time working on them and getting them how I want them... though they probably won't get much attention until winter.
 
Here are some updated pictures of my two favorite tanks. For some reason, the 40 breeder has slipped in to 3rd place. The 29 is slowly becoming my favorite, though I'm thinking of setting up another dirt tank soon. If that happens, It'll probably be close to the 29g. Current inhabitants of the 29g are a bristlenose and 4 otos. I plan on adding more fish soon enough, just gotta decide what.

And the 150 (not sure why it's so grainy).

Thanks! The 150 needs some work. I cut out the biggest bunch of diversifolia, sunset hygro, and narrow leaf ludwigia yesterday... filled up a 3g bucket loosely. I've just not been doing much with it. This winter, I hope to spend some more time on my tanks. I'll be doing a couple more planted builds, and getting out of the barebottom tanks. I do hope to breed some angels though... that's my hope at least.
 
Yes I'm sure that I want a man cave with a bunch of tanks. ;)


Except....I see what you're sayin about all the work, like running your own little fish store in your house haha.
 
Well sir, I would consider it a man cave because I'd be the only one taking care of it. It would also have more than just fish tanks, like pictures of half naked chicks on the walls so my girlfriend would stay out. Therefor, man cave. :D:D:D

The 29g looks great! I love the little Otto on the front glass!
 
Nice set-up, even with the reduction in tanks. Funny how life has a way of controlling what we do regardless of if we like it or not eh?!
