It just depends. I let go of my red devil because in the end I preferred to keep jack dempsey's if I was only gonna have one tank. If there is something you would love more then I would say yes, but if you love the midas and endli then keep them.
I have a baby coming in 3 months and I am downsizing to just 3 tanks, I think ill be alot happier having less tanks but more quality set ups. It's expensive to keep all of them running and stay on top of replacing a hodge podge of aging equipment.

OH.. I wish this thread was posted 8 months earlier!! My hobby is beginning to become my job....Just feeding my tanks takes over an hour a day
too much preparation of frozen foods. I think I need to combine all my tanks into 2 big tanks. Getting out of hand for me.

Whoa! That's a long time just to feed them. It is very easy for things to get out of hand if you don't practice self control. That's exactly what happened to me. I just simply wanted and ended up getting more then I could handle. That really took all the joy out of it for me. I'm really loving my one tank and I love having a tank that's a manageable size for me and that don't overwhelm the space it's in. This was a lesson learned for me.
Yup !!!!
I am likewise downsizing, not tanks but the number of fish I keep. After sometime, realized I only enjoy certain species of fish. So I have been selling/giving away the once that someone will appreciate better.
Do what you need to do to make this hobby fun and not become a chore !!!
ouuhh yeaah, i already put my midas in the pond.. i re-landscape my tank yesterday and my endli looks happy to be alone.. i put some more driftwoods in there.. he's happy im happy
Easier said than done!! 'Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction'. It's the single most common factor that drives most of us(MFKers) even though most of us won't admit it. MY NAME IS VINCENT AND I'M A FISH GREEDY ADDICT!
I have considered downsizing but instead I find myself adding more and more as my fish won't stop growing.
I completely understand where you are coming from. I am cutting down on my amount of tanks as well. I am at 3 now and I am content. I actually put two tanks up on craigslist and sold one this morning. Never thought I would ever sell a tank.
Currently my largest is 75, if I had to have just one tank I would want it to be a 125. I love CA cichlids and would want enough room to house all the types I currently have split between two tanks and I think a 125 would do it.
