Haha! This thread is great! I love it!

Yep, but if we were sane, we'd be horrible fishkeepers. Our craziness helps us make better and more original homes for our finned babies

If it makes you feel better, I've changed the substrate in 3 tanks in the last 7 days. The fish in those tanks think I'm bi-polar

I have to agree insanity makes us better fish keepers!

Haha... Bolivanbaby that's so true. My betta watches me do water tests like 8 times a day and he probably thinks "This human needs to get a life". Hopefully he knows I'm doing it for his own good.

My neighbors always come over for the turtles and the few fish I have.

I think it is safe to quote this...."Anyway, this is when I stumbled upon Fishlore. I saw these crazy people with so many tanks each - now I am envious of them! (they're still crazy though!)."
Of course. I'm not one of them am I? But I do agree that you have to be crazy to be good at it!

bolivianbaby

Crazy and creative go hand in hand

Napoleon anyone?

bolivianbaby

I was thinking of a more positive crazy person, like Einstein, but Napoleon works And we can never forget about some of the greatest artist's in history.

And let's not forget Shakespeare! I can guarantee that man was NOT SANE!

I remember when I first logged onto fishlore I was like "wow that person has 5 tanks!!! I just don't understand how they have time for life AND all their fishtanks" now I look back and I realize that you life BECOMES your fishtanks ...

Time

hahahaha I only have three tanks that is nothing compared to five but I plan on getting two more a 20 and another 10 and a 2.5. Wait that is three lol. My life has been fishtanks from the very start although one is a turtle tank.

I know! I don't even have my 29 gal. where I want it yet and I'm already planning out a 75 gal! As I walk past certain pieces of furniture I'm eyeballing them as if to say "I dont really need that dinning room table."

Well as for me We have an office that we don't use any longer because we use the laptop so gonna ditch the desk that is there and give away the sectional/bed that is also there so I can put my breeder tanks. Is gonna be about 10 or so hahaha.

I know this kind of talk should come as a warning to us newbies, but I must already be hooked because it just makes me giddy. Then again, I did just get done making a video AND taking pictures of my tank.... At least I'm in good company.

Time

wow I even want to get a pond. Breeder tanks are small. If I get rid of my computer I could fit a 20 gallon on the desk and a bunch of 2.5 gallons on the shelf for bettas. The shelf even fits my ancient computer monitor from the times of Windows 2000, speakers, fish food, and a pen.

Time

My mom got a piece of furniture that was supposed to be mine. It would have worked great for my 10 gallon tank but if I ever get it. It would go from furniture to betta central. It has 2 shelves so I could add a light for the bottom shelf and keep so many betta tanks. Hopefully I get money soon. I already have a light that was 20$.
