Hi my name is Loopy and i am addicted to fish.

i know my problem isn't a very severe case but is has the potential to be.

i have 12 tanks and a lot of fish.

i have tanks inside tanks and i even had two tanks inside the bathroom at one point.

Hi my name is Billaney and i am addicted to fish.

i know my problem IS a very severe case but is has the potential to be even worse.

i have 26 tanks and a lot of fish.

i have big tanks ,little tank. but my favourite tank is always my NEXT one :oops:

Hi everyone - great idea here.

My name is Richard, and I have a Mad case of MTS.

I have nearly 30 tanks, of which 8 are "currently" set up in various rooms around my house. A 7footer, two 4 footers, three 3 footers, and two 2 foot tanks.

Sometimes I think I get more satisfaction out of "setting up" a system than I should - and spend more time (and energy) cleaning and aquascaping and moving filters about, than actually caring for established tanks.

I have learnt NOT to sell tanks when the bug dies off......the bug always returns (and its too expensive to keep buying everythin all over again.)

Hi my name is Simon and I'm well addicted.

I only have 4 tanks running at the moment, but however my girlfriend (who shops for fish out of my tanks) is apparently getting 6 more lol

Seemingly I'm supposed to breed enough fish to fill them, who am I to complain....

Hi, our names are Blue and Kim.

Blue has MTS but Kim does NOT :lol:

We've only been back into fish for 3 months after Blue took a 10 year vacation from fishkeeping. Already up to 8 tanks (only 5 currently running) we're now out of space and will be looking to buy a new house to fit more tanks

Oh, I should mention that our cats love our MTS. They now have a TV in every room of the house!

Ok, here we go, this is hard .....

Hi, I'm Cees and I'm addicted to fish.

I have:

- 25 tanks dedicated to guppies

- 1 tank with goldfish and apple snails.

I have space and a need for more tanks.

Because I can resist buying fish at a petshop (I only need guppies) I don't think I have a problem.

Cees

Hmm seems we have quite a good turn out! lots of addicts out there (call it what you want for you lot who are in denial..... )

Now.... how can we "support" each other?

Anyone need another tank??
