Huh?


I used to have a few tanks, i had two piranha'* at one time. But lately i haven't had time or money to worry about it. My brother on the other hand has an awesome collection of fish tanks. He'* got an in wall tank between his dining room and living room, he'* got an 80ish gallon in the living room, he'* got a 50 gallon in the bedroom, and right now he'* working on getting a 500 gallon for his basement. Lots of fish in his house :P. My favorite of his fish is his lion-fish, very beautiful fish.

My bad, my keys were sticking and I didn't proof read before i submitted. What I said was" I am into them, but because of school, my finances haven't allowed me to get an elaborate setup. How big is your tank"

I have a small 15 gallon octagon shaped tank in my living room for now. It only has a few Angel fish and some other colorful fish that my sister bought but it'* peaceful to watch after class

I've always wanted one, even if its not an really big tank. Did he cut a hole in the wall for the tank?

Good to see a few in here. I have 2 tanks right know, a 4ft 55 gallon in my dining area and a 3ft 45 set up in my computer room. Both set up as fresh water. In the near future I will Probally get rid of the 55 to set up a bigger one (100-180 range). Once you get started it is almost additive as Bonnevilles

Thats alot of water, lol. Did you have all these at once? Is it hard to maintain a saltwater tank? I dont much about them, any that I have seen were at fish stores and were overly huge.

actually he already had a window there, so he put the tank there and built around it.
