with a price like that, a REALISTIC goal! I feel very very elated.

BTW what are the dimensions of these 1k tanks though? if they are only 10 feet long...

see, I'd be interested in something that has dimensions like 13-15' x 3-5' x 3-4'
12x4x3 (1078 gallon) mostly likely.... i want a 12 x 6 x3 thou... 1618gallon

Hmmmmmm Fish addiction……..Hmmm let's see, where to start?

-As much as I want to have multiple tanks I can only have one in my home so I try to pack as many fish as I can into the tanks. I like it that way :D

-Was really into African cichlids once and my best tank was my old 125G. Had I have over 700lbs of rock work, 200lbs of sand and 300++ fish ranging from 4-8" in there. It was Hella packed! Nice to watch. There were so many fish in there that when they all came up to the front of the tank you can barely see the rock work in the back. And No I don’t have pics. Couldn't afford a Digital Camera back then.

-My wife says I have extra energy for the fish. I say I am tired and want to plop to bed after a long day at work, but when I see the tank is filthy I proceed on doing my water changes that take me 2hrs. One time I did the water change at 2AM and went to bed at 4AM. LOL

-I am guilty of falling asleep in front of the tank. Also fell asleep during water changes, only to be awakened by the sound of overflowing water!!!!! NOT GOOD!

-Wife says I feed my fish better than us. LOL!

-You know you're addicted that when you get into an a really bad argument with your wife, she will say "It's either I go or the fish goes!!!!"
(don't make me answer that question. :D j/k) LOL!
Stayed with a girlfriend once about 3 months too long because my fish were in her two 350s, she poisoned them with chlorox cause I told her she had to stop sleeping with her girlfriend or I would move out, Left that day.

guppy is a wierdo... LOL
Her girlfriend hated me, what can I say. I once flew from Korea to Thailand via Guam just so I could go fishing for scats and mudskippers, found acreek full of tiger fish too. Interesting trip. Almost lost a stripe becuase I was 2 days late getting back. Had to finally go to the embassy in Bangcock and volunteer to pull courier duty to Japan where I could bum a lift to Korea.
 
Damn, I hate it whenever I BUY new fish, not even knowing where I'm going to put them??... :confused: just had to buy it cause it was 'rare'!! :grinno: Lol!

tankspace is ALWAYS the problem :(
 
my wife and I went to the melting pot, fondue resturant where you cook your food at the table in a fondue pot. we almost brought home raw shrimp for the fish. didn't know where we would put them though.
