Haha the maintenance on all those tanks is ridiculous haha.

I'd have an 180 gallon reef, with a 40 gallon frag tank, and maybe a 125 discus tank! Even the maintenance on those is a ton. I guess I've always been a realist.

If I had enough money for all those tanks, there would be staff and an auto PWC system. That way I could feed the fish, aquascape, and enjoy, while all the other work is done for me!

I currently only have one, and I've had my one now for 6 years. I do not plan on having another one as I like to keep things simple.

If space, money, and maintenance staff were no objects...

300 gallon reef tank
300 gallon salt predator tank
300 gallon amazon biotope tank
100 gallon freshwater community tank
2,000 gallon shark tank
10x 10 gallon male betta tanks
100 gallon betta sorority tank
Multiple breeding tanks
Multiple fry tanks
100 gallon crayfish tank

Right now I just have the time, room, and money for a 56 gallon fresh community tank, a 30 gallon saltwater puffer tank, a 5 gallon cray tank, a 10 gallon betta tank, and the 20 gallon I'm going to be setting up again soon, hopefully for a betta fry tank. I want to set up a spare bedroom for something of a fish room, but cleaning the room out is a daunting task!

This is turning into the dream tank thread.
A seaworld sized tank with a great white.

Id keep 4 or 5 tanks on a serious note.

A tank with 6 of each tetra. Theres hundreds but that would be a sight.

I'd also like to do a tank with a sealed divider down the middle (40 breeder in half, so 20 gallons in each side) and have a freshwater betta on one said and a marine betta on the other I think this would be really cool!!
