Move fish around until you get the one perfect tank you want and sell your other equipment. It is nice to know you have all those fish but the upkeep is hard. Better to have fewer and give them full attention. ___________________________________________ If at first you DO succeed, try not to look astonished.

Then the feeling wears off after a while and I find myself turning my attention to new ideas for new tanks and fish. What helps curb my "aquarium habit" is really putting my foot down on tank and fish limits. (Current space and $$ issues help with that too right now ) Plus finding other things that give me that "high" I like so much. Other hobbies and activities that I can focus more of my time and energy towards.
