The Fish House and the plans

So right now I am running about 34 tanks. Current fish house size is 14 x 20. The slab i originally poured is 14 x 30. 6' of that are a front porch. 20' are the house. So I have another 6' left. Over our Christmas shutdown/vacation I am planning on building the last 6' out and knocking out the back wall of the fish house. Another 84 sq ft. That is another 42 tanks. So next year if all goes well I should have over 100 running in controlled climate and maybe another 10 under the back porch area.
That SHOULD get all the tanks I currently own up and running. I think after that I will hold off buying more tanks.


If you believe that I have this nice bridge for sale.

There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved through a suitable application of high explosives.
There are only two types of people. Italians and those that wish they were

What do you plan on raising/keeping?

Not many I would start any breeding program with.

Ron is doing OK. I was going over every Sunday after church but have missed the last three weeks. I did talk to him Friday after the surgery. He had left a message wishing me well.
Going to try and see him this Sunday. He loves when I bring the little one over. They watch TV together.

Are they Snots (bristle nose) or other plecos.  I adore snots.
Always move forward. Never look back.

Surely you aren't talking about our Ron Sower?  He's the only Ron I know.  If it's our Ron someone needs to PM me and tell me what happened.

I've tried to get him to keep at least a 29. He can't take care of it. So he says. Still gets dizzy and headaches.

I did a lot of work there taking the room down so he could use the space. And it's a 40-45 minute ride over. But about everyone else save me and one other that has abandoned him. Gene and his wife spent Thanksgiving with Ron and his wife Jan. I was glad for that. Gene is a few minutes away and helps Ron when he can.

This past summer Ron's dogs kept getting out of the yard. Little G put wire all around the fence line with zip ties. First day Ron wanted to give him $$$ I said no way. Sucker got mad at me. I told him what he does when I can't see I can't see Grandpa. My grandmother always found ways to give me money and it made her happy. Figured it makes Ron happy to so who am I to take that away?
