I need a bigger tank

[Clearwater guy]

I just want to commend him for taking care of the tank the way he does. It is clean, cared for, and that's all I need to know. They need a bigger tank to continue growing, and that's the only issue. Why's everyone giving him a hard time?

Nice job keeping those fish healthy. That is a lot of work, and I don't know anyone else your age that would actually put forth the effort. Keep it up.

Thanks, most people don't relize how much extra effort it takes to keep a tank with that many fish clean and clear.

One only needs a few Stingrays to realize... And I have 40 3"-4" Tilapia in a 75 gallon quarantine tank right now. If the pump stops, they all gulp air at the surface. So I can double-relate...

I wonder if "only" having a 75 gallon QT tank is irresponsible of me? Well, I ordered 40 1"-2" fish...The small ones weren't available, so I got an "upgrade"...I suppose some would say it would be more responsible to flush 20 of them down the toilet... But I need to sex them, and sort them for breeding before the proper amount of them go into a 150. And I can't sort them until they are healthy.

But at any rate, I know what it's like to have to suck out poop twice a day. I can't wait till they are done with QT in about 5 more days or so.
