Only 8 tanks and more when the wife is done decorating...... I hate you :( seriously 8 and more coming not fair I have to fight to even have one..... :lol:

Amazing collection though I think you are seriously underselling the tanks though more pics especially of the 250 gallon :D

Will you just type things normally!!! It makes it awkward to read when you do your stupid excessive use of the ENTER key :lol:
 
Thanks Wills and Biffster

Big_eyes & walkers101 - no I do have the right calculations for my tank sizes and am not getting litres and gallons mixed up

The 2 75 gallon tanks for instance are 48"x18"x26" which actually works out to around 81 gallon but allowing for the 2" of space above water works out to 75 gallon, pretty much all of my tanks are odd sizes and specially made to fit into spaces I want them to go into so most have odd depths or widths to maximise the space.

If thats the case i would love to see a full tank pic of the 250 gallon mixed loach tank it must be very long

I think what you see is a full tank pic. Look at the size of that banana in front of the tank for example...... :drool:

Wow, thats alot of tanks. I get moaned at for having 4 tanks running and i only have a 280L, 180L and x2 70Ls lol. I agree with Wills, you would be doing your tanks far more justice if you took more photos of each and posted them ;) Also you'd be pleasing us all if you did so.


Big_Eyes, that was somewhat insensitive toward the biffster -_-
 
fair point with the banana

sorry if i sounded dodgey
 
Thanks Wills and Biffster

That is more or less a full tank shot, the only bits hidden are by the two large plants at either end which hide the internal powerheads that give flow along the bottom and surface, the tank is 84"x28"x30"

Thanks, I will add some more pics of each tank and the fish in them later, I will also add some pics of my 6000 gallon (not litres) Koi pond as well.

Maybe for the seriously over sensitive folk of the universe.......it wasn't said as a harsh dig. There was light heartedness behind it. :rolleyes:

Looking forward to these pics Mad Duff :good:
