But hey! Look on the bright side, you can now make others get the FH bug!
That RD from lakefish have lots of potential, priced really nice too, good pick up! Send me a PM on what others you got, if you want to that is

I thought only i am crazy, but there are lots and lots like me.. hehehehehe.. I strongly agree that its mostly JPs fault. every now and then getting new and beautiful fishes and making us want more.

Now....next phase for you is.........Your wife will even hate it more....... get ready and scroll down...........
You will soon sell most of the current FHs and get BETTER ones(More $$$$$ of course). How soon? depends.......but oh believe me, the time WILL COME!
And it will NEVER end!
JP
It starts out small then one day you wake up with fish tanks full of FH's in every room and all you can think about is the one you just saw on the Internet for sale. Never happy with the ones you have and never enough tank space for all of them.Mattyou;2184769; said:
Yeah this is my problem. I don't even have these fish and I'm already looking forward to see whats new on aquabid to buy. I'm your typical glutton american
.Ok this is how it went down with the wife. As you notice I made it look like I got the fish that she liked, so she thinks that the fish is sort of hers , um NOT. My second professional married person move was by offereing to get rid of the fish that she loves in the 125gallon. Naturally she doesn't want to get rid of her fish, so WAMO!!! I now get to buy 2 more 55s. Learn from the master kids! Thats how you can spend hundreds of dollars on fish and still have your wifes support to spend hundreds more on tanks. Man they don't teach this kind of stuff in schools!

I ended up buying more than those 2 fish last night. I bought another fish as well. The one that you liked from the second list. I'm going to have a slight problem though.
They both are sending me extra fish for free (Big LIE). Should I buy another small tank (probably too small for the fish you like) or sell the fish in the 125g and buy dividers for it?
Thanks,
From my wife to me
Just go ahead and buy you another tank. I don't want to mess with the 125 in our room I kind of like it the way it is. I would look into getting rid of the 40 or moving it to the other wall (we would have to move the desk out which is fine since it's not being used). Just get you another set up like your other two 55s.

A MANS GOTTA DO WHAT A MANS GOTTA DO 
Yep thats right. I have the two new 55s in my room and I have already started to mentally prep her for 2 more 55s in the very near future. That will give me 6 55 gallon tanks, which should be enough. I love the 55 gallon tank size. I could get bigger or smaller fish tanks, like some of the bigger ones that I have, but the 55 galloner seems just right to me.
Yeah 55s are dirt cheap. I really love them. I have mine on metal stands that way I can get 2 tanks for the wallspace of one tank with a wooden stand.
