How are you going to heat and filter them? Hope you anticipated this....Or I hope your fuses can handle the load...Take it from me, I had 13 tanks in my basement...It got REALLY cold, and my breakers could not handle the load....I had to sell most of the tanks down there....
 
cant wait to see how it turns out =]

I'm planning to use sponge filter and each tank with it own heater.. This project in mine is to breed discus and that why i'm using sponge filter.. I live in the bay area so its doesn't get too cold or too hot...

Sounds good:D I would have recommended sponges....Instead of buying many small pumps, buy one big one and run all filters off of it;)
