Simian Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Well Im from Hamilton my 3yo daughter got given a 2' empty tank for her birthday about 6 months ago and thats where it started, now I have added a 3' Planted community tank, I have a new 3' Cichlid tank arriving on Saturday and am currently putting together another 2x2' tanks. I now have no disposable income left after I get my weekly fix from my dealer and I have run out of room in my games room. Fortunately my wife is now hooked so my marriage is safe....for now... I have decided I really want an Arrowana...I thought I could keep off the hard stuff but now I'm not so sure *Sobs* Halp me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loopy Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Welcome Owen You may rest assured that you are not the only one with this condition. There is even a name for it : Multiple Tank Syndrome or M.T.S for short. There is NO cure. Fortunately my wife is now hooked so my marriage is safe this is a good thing or a bad thing......depends on how you look at it :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 Well .... my 3yo daughter got given a 2' empty tank for her birthday about 6 months ago and thats where it started, now I have added a 3' Planted community tank, I have a new 3' Cichlid tank arriving on Saturday and am currently putting together another 2x2' tanks.......... I now have no disposable income left after I get my weekly fix from my dealer and I have run out of room in my games room. Ha ha - That's pretty much what we did! We got a goldfish bowl six months ago and now have three tanks (one of which is a microscopic, teeny weeny, treatment tank) and the goldfish bowl is now in a drawer 'cos we are ashamed of it!! Scary how it escalates isn't it? What really makes me laugh is that you feel compelled to buy a 40 buck filter and an air pump and a testing kit and lights .... all for a 5 Buck goldfish !!! Are we mad? Both being in Hamilton I expect we have the same "dealer". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
