wooo first post ;D
i have a few tanks (4 as of today)
i have a rekord 60 in my room that houses 30-40 crystal red shrimp, tons of MTS, 3 guppy fry and a "white" betta. it did have a Blue male and then i added 5 females and they brought in about 5 or more different parasites and bacterial diseases which killed themselves and my male so i ran it fishless (shrimps aren't fish) for 2 weeks to starve the parasites and bacterial infections to death. then added the "white" one. i do a 10 litre water change (about 20% of tank volume) every month or 2 as there is such a low amount of waste being produced in the tank.
i have the Rekord 70 in front room/computer room which contains one male guppy (other 4 died mysteriously) and 8 multi's (shell dwellers), i try to do a 10L water change on this tank every week
i have a Rekord 120 in the kitchen (2 years old and was my first tank, it was second hand so came with 7 goldfish and 2 hillstream loach) this is now a tropical community tank that houses the old residents of the shell dweller tank. These are:
8 Peppered Corydora
1 Male Sailfin Molly
1 Male Dwarf Gourami
~5 Male Guppies
~6 Female Guppies
~ 8 Zebra Danios
~3 Leopard Danios
1 Otto
~15 Adult Apple Snails
and i think thats it
I also have a new 40L tank next to the Rekord 120 in the kitchen that i bought today and has a Blue Male Betta and 5 Red Ramshorns that came with some of the snail shells as well as all the daphnia i have left from Yesterday this will remain a bare bottomed tank for ease of cleaning as it shall hold most of the baby snails from my 11 egg sacs
i also have a pond (gallonage unknown) which has 2 ghost koi (my favourates) 5 large golden orfe, a medium sized blue orfe, a bristol shubunkin, and numerous comets, goldfish and london shubunkins
i also work part time in LFS 2 or 3 times a week but i guess they dont count as my tanks
