If you have too many tanks, the maintenance can get you down. Once that starts, its just a matter of time that you may quit the grind of all those water changes and algae cleanings, and filter cleanings, and disease control, etc..
DOES FISH HOBBY SICKNESS STOP AFTER YOU HAVE THE MASSIVE TANK?

You still have the urge for more tanks but having a monster tank definitely keep you more content.
Getting the massive tank is the progression of the sickness, not the cure. Since you are still sick this response may not make any sense to you.
I got into the hobby a few months ago, in that short time I have had (and all are still up and running) 10 gallon (1st) 60 gallon, and most recent a 100 gallon and I still have plans for a bigger indoor tank when i get my own place instead of an apartment and an indoor pond ( thinking the intex pool ideas I have seen in the DIY section on this site ) so eventually it will have to... mostly based on what i can afford lol
It is an addiction, point blank. You'll always be struggling to keep it under control no matter how much, or little, you indulge in it.

it really never stops.
i got me a 120, four months later got a 220, then 2 months later i got a 240. And now im going to build a 500+ gallon tank.
i have a 110 and am looking at getting a 180 and a 300 if i can find the room and convince my girlfriend that i can make them fit in the house 
so i would say it will not stop till we all have 12,000 gal tanks in our homes
