[|squee|]

Wow. I only have one 2 ft and a 1.4 ft.

[FishFan]

Hmm... I've 2 x 2ft, 1 x 1.5ft and 1 x 1ft. But only 1 x 2ft is planted though. The other is for the LH.

[JT]

1 x 4ft(Bullet shape), 4 x 2ft (3 at home, 1 at office), 8 small tanks - keeping different shrimps in capitivity(until they are big enough to go into the main tanks), 1 water feature pond. That about all, planning to get another 2ft and 1.5ft to put at my office. btw, dun be mistaken, I live in HDB flats alright...

[inspirational]

I got couple of tanks at home:

>> one 5 feet
>> two 3 feet
>> four 2 feet
>> six 1.5 feet
>> six 1 feet

Thats exclude the tanks i have in my sister's house.

[vinz]

Wow! What do you guys have in the tanks?

Mine:
- 6ft planted with arowana
- 1m planted, low maintenance
- 1m terrarium for Cynops orientalis (Chines Firebelly Newt), low maintenance
- 3ft for Tanganyikan Cichlids
- 20cm cube for a friend (still stablising it)
- 15 inch planted, low maintenance
- 18inch cube to become a terrarium for Pachytriton labiatus (Paddletail Newts), low maintenance (hopefully)

Haha! When I first started 3 yrs back, I bit off more than I could chew. I had tanks on the floors, in the kitchen, in the toilets, and corridors. But today I'm down to just 2 - a 4 ft and a 2 ft.

My wife has been breathing down my neck lately to give up the 2 ft sitting at one side of our balcony, space which she had earlier "chopped" for her cosy corner.

[gregorsamsa]

for me, actually i share with my brother

my 2 ft tank is a low light set up now with a Echin red flame given by brtoher barmby

imy nano by the window sill in the balcony just have moss and ghost shrimps Its for my java moss to regrow after they were chewed to death by my SAE in my main.

My bro 2 feet tank has
01 x silver aro
01 x indon tiger
01 x siamese tiger
01 x gar fish
02 x senegal bichir

the other 2 feet he put 01 x mini siamese tiger and all the feeder fish

my one feet tank use natural sunlight and the valis bubble like mad
use it to put 4 white albino cory since its just a water body.
the last tank is those cheapo plastic tank. he put 2 delhezi inside it cos it bit is precious mini tiger.

[budak]

Tanks that get some natural light will do fairly well.

I can't help though but note that your brother's tank is severely overcrowded. One arowana in a 2 ft seems a rather cruel sport to me. Pray tell me you made a typo.

[mordrake]

here's what i have at the moment;

4x 2ft = discus
4x 2ft = apistos
1x 1.5ft = shrimp
1x 1.5ft cube = angel fries
2x 1.5ft = apistos
1x 2ft = mixed (dad's tank)
1x 3ft planted discus (at in-laws)

moving house in a couple of weeks so new place will have;

1x 6ft = planted discus tank
4x 2ft = breeding tanks (TBC)
1x 2ft = marine nano (TBC)
1x 1.5ft = shrimp
1x 3ft FGT ranchu pond

[elmike]

I kinda get worried when I see people keeping so many tanks. I fear to see their names popping up in Market Place/ Trading Post of fish forums :P looking to dispose of their tanks. We’ve seen some fellow AQ forumers crumble that way.
So guys, don’t bite off more than you can chew, OKAY?

[gregorsamsa]

dun worry, my brother got it cover such that each the fishes belong to different levels.
plus it is a min silver around 4 inch. When it get bigger, my bro will either off load or get new tank

[gregorsamsa]

just out of curiosity, how many keep your scapes over long periods, journal style (no rescaping the same tank)?

cos again i was at kinokuniya andsaw nature aquarium book 3, hill rug Acts. In it, Mr Amano allowed the scape (consisting mainly Mu, riccia and glosso) to mature over a year without pruning, so just wondering anybody is so "dedicated" because i know itchy hands is a perenial problem.
