Hello, my name is John and … I’m a fish hoarder…lol

I have a dozen tanks and always looking for bigger and better and we just looked at another 500 gallon acrylic tank last night that was on CL!! Our tanks combined are into the thousands of gallons. It’s gotten to the point where the tanks have spilled out into my garage now for space reasons, so we park outside in the driveway because of our obsession for Monster fish keeping… I even have plans on building a 2500+ gallon DIY tank in the near future in the basement…Every pet shop, fish store and fish transporter in the entire Denver and surrounding area knows me… Where does it end????? Another problem is my girl is just as bad as me when it comes to our fish addiction, so there is no one to stop us…lol Matter a fact, she’s the one questioning if we have a problem or not and say’s we’re Fish Hoarders??

I have over a dozen peacock bass (3” to 13”) and several more ordered, will have another half dozen by end of the month (4) flowerhorns, over a dozen catfish (red tail, hybrids, firewood cat, ..(BIG Cats) EBJD’s, royal knifes, Arowanas, silver dollars, Datnoids Tigerfish, Vieja’s, blood parrots, pleco’s everywhere, several pairs of convicts for breeding feeders, Discus, green severum, Oscars, Bichirs, African tiger fish, Lung fish, red tiger Moto’s, sturgeon, flounders, saber tooths, sting rays, gars ….I’m sure I even forgot something here…


Think I have a problem?

Is there anyone out there that has this same addiction?? How may tanks / gallons, fish do you have??
 
the only reason i dont have that problem is that my wife isnt nearly as interested as i am and holds me back. your girl is an enabler...i wonder if you could get on that animal hoarders show...

Lol, I'm in the same boat. I have 4 tanks up and running right now, the only reason my entire house isn't full of them is because of my wife. I had to pinky swear to no more tanks last time I set one up. :)
 
Lol my husband tells me I'm a fish hoarder all the time...but compared to some members on this site I'm no where near being a fish hoarder! I've got 5 tanks that range from 10 gallons to 55 gallons and working on getting my 140 set up. It's a good thing my husband doesn't know about this site! I'll have a true "monster" tank someday :)
 
The first step to recovery is admitting that you have a problem. The next step is making a list of what you have and letting me pick what I want and shipping it to me. That will be your first step to your recovery.:ROFL:
