So here in New Zealand you get a loyalty card at the LFS,today when i went in to buy my Arowana I joked and told the manager "Hey hows sum discount",he replied saying "we might aswell give you the shop considering the amount of money you spend with us monthly"

he scanned my loyalty card and i almost fell on my back not realizing how many $$$$ ive spent there in the past few months.
By the way he gave me $30 discount on my arowana.

Anyway i was then curious to know how many of the people on this site has a addiction with fish and wanted to find out how many fish everyone is keeping and what types they are.

Ok, I'm jealous. Only two tanks running here, and neither big, but soon to be three at least (if I ever find someone to carry that thing to over here), and that's it then.

Here goes:

totally overstocked but soon to be two tanks with 755 l in total

1 Oscar 11"
1 Green Terror (goldsaum) 5"
1 Nicaraguan Cichlid 7" (strangely the most aggressive one)
2 Firemouth (tried to get rid of the one I had, now I got two somehow) 4-4.5"
1 Pink Convict 1"
1 Salvin's Cichlid 2"
1 Geophagus whatever 2" (I hope, not seeing it often)
1 Redfin Shark 4-5"
2 female Bristlenose Plecos (I think) 4"
All getting along currently but talk about water changes.

Tank 2 - 54 l
7 young Neolamprologus brevis, hoping to get a pair
1 leftover Clown Pleco (messiest fish I got)
1 leftover Upside-Down Cat
Hoping to move the old catfishes into bigger quarters soon

Else 2 smallish tanks, one housing the last pet mouse currently, one as hospital/quarantine tank for smaller fish.

500 gallon tank- in the progress

200 gallon pond- sadly several fish died recently in there because of granite that got in there from people workin' on our floors:( Very few fish in there now, just a few oscars and my 17'' pleco.

72 gallon tank(SW)- royal grama, some damsels, ruby wrasse, and some tangs

55 gallon tank- Labeotropheus trewavasae West Thumb Island Opal

40 gallon pond- few little oscars, and some livebearers that provide them constant food.
