how many aquariums do you have? - 2007/02/24 07:37 Currently I only have one 65 gallon tall aquarium, but hopefully in the near future I'll have a full-blow fish room.

How about you? How many tanks do you have?

Re:how many aquariums do you have? - 2007/05/24 16:11 I have one ten and one five, but only operating the ten at the moment....

I would like to try a marine aquarium in the future.

Re:how many aquariums do you have? - 2007/05/25 04:20 Five and ten gallon aquariums may be a little small to run a marine aquarium. You need a little more water volume to maintain the balance

Re:how many aquariums do you have? - 2007/05/25 10:03 Ya , I just added that I would like a marine, and have been told a 35 would be a minimum. I still don't know what to put in the fiver, seems everyone says its a bit to small for much of anything.You mentioned a breeder tank. I was thinking a sole fish could go in it like an oscar or something.

Re:how many aquariums do you have? - 2007/05/25 10:09 An oscar would do great in there! For about 3 weeks that is...

A friend of mine once put two oscar into a ten gallon. Within a very short time, a 35 gallon upgrade was necessary.

Most full-grown oscars reside in 50+ gallon aquariums

Re:how many aquariums do you have? - 2007/05/25 15:20 An eel may be OK, just make sure you seal the top tightly. My friend had one, found it on the floor...

Re:how many aquariums do you have? - 2008/07/28 05:25 ok, the truth is I'm an addict... I have a 75gallon reef, 55gal goldfish, 2 29gal (1 convict cichlids, 1 community) 2 2gal w/bettas and just recently purchased a 125gal for african cichlids (not set up yet!) I'm beginning to think that I may need professional help... LOL
