I finally sold my 125 gallon last week. So now I only have one 60 gallon tank, not including the turtle tank. I am loving it! My love for my hobby has become stronger now that I have more time to enjoy watching my jack dempsey's interact. I almost though i was close to leaving the hobby because I felt like I wasn't able to keep up with the 125 gallon. I don't think I am completely done with multiple tanks but I will never own a tank bigger then a 75 gallon. Huge tanks just are not for me. Lol... I almost feel like I should be banned from this forum. Am I the only one who prefer tanks that are 75 gallons and under?

Due to me being limited to my room for tank space and the love of multiple tanks I can agree with that.

I am in a position to go as big as I want in a couple of weeks when I move (within reason), and the largest I'd do is 5 feet in length.

I like to be able to see everything going on in the tank peripherally, I wouldn't want to feel like the tank was overpowering lol. Probably doesn't make sense but oh well. Trigon 350 is my 1st choice

You guys are crazy! I want a swimming pool with a window! :p

Nah I'm just playing. Different strokes for different folks I say. What makes you monster is your dedication to your fish, not the size of your tank! :D

To each is own I guess but for me bigger is better and I'd go as big as they make em if I could lol. Once I have my own place and I'm doing good on finances I'm prepared to make a HUGE tank/pond hybrid. Meaning a pond with a viewing window or just a tank itself or I'd order one to be made custom. I don't mean 500-800 gallons huge....I mean bigger lol.i like bigger tanks personally. When I have a 75 gallon it feels like I am limited to such small fish with small bio loads, and I'm into monsters like rtc, airapima , stingrays(when I get out of cali possibly) and many more monsters. But it's good to hear you've found your niche in the hobby. Weather your tank is big or small is fine. As long as you like the fish and are able to keep up with them then the hobby is still fun and that's what a hobby is all about.

I have the least work to do with my 220 because of moderate stock and overcapacity on filtration. All my tanks are on a drip system.

I agree with that. I like to see the whole tank at one time without having to scan from side to side
