Welcome to the site. Anyone who can put up with shootie's shit can make it here. Fucker wants to hang everybody...........sheesh...........
I am an aquaphile too, currently running 8- 20 longs, containing mostly brochis and cory colonies. I would have more tanks, but id probably have to get divorced first.

I mean shoot, you've only been here five minutes and you've already brought out a hidden facet in Coyote Coopersmith.

Welcome here, the place needs female perspective as a larger percentage of the mix. There are a few women currently posting but we definitely need more. Happy to see you here.
It would be cool to have my wife to post here but even on her best day she wasn't politically attuned and to what extent she was---- The first time I walked into her house there was a poster on her wall which said, "Friends don't let friends vote republican." I'm sorta surprised we got married, I was late 40's after a long term marriage breakup. She told me that she almost got physically sick when she saw the contents of my gun safe. She got over it though and is a better pistol shot that I am.
Now, it's sorta moot since she has Alzheimer's.

I useta have a 50 and a 75 gallon salt-water tank group set up in an "L". Every single thing in those tanks was hand-caught.
That made it fun. We quickly learned to separate certain creatchy-poos. For instance, a juvenile trigger fish (1") will attack a baby sting ray (8") until the sting ray dies.
Or a shovel-nosed lobster cannot be with a fringed scallop. <-- lunch in under a minute -- the lobster has pointy toes like rose thorns. He can pry open a big oyster in no time. So we had a "Baby" tank and a "Killer" tank.
LATE EDIT ADD: If you are ever in the Floriduh Keys and are snorkeling in about 2-4 feet of water, you will see lots of 1-2 inch clam shells. Gently pick them up... by the time you get to the tenth one, you will see a tweeny widdoo octopus trying to hold the two clamshells together. Put the undisturbed octopus-holder in your zip-loc bag and take him home.
I came home with about a dozen one day. Put them in the Baby tank and the Killer tank. Reason: they hide really well.
Next morning, five of them had crawled out of the tanks and were several feet away on the floor.

My mother's cat used to go fishing, in my brother's aquarium.
No pic. This was back almost 50 years ago...the cat, the fish, and just about everyone, are all gone now. But, when I think of aquariums, I just recall that big tomcat (over 15 pounds; he was padded but by no means fat) trying to perch up alongside the glass tank, finding the leverage to reach in.
It was on top of a small bookcase; and that cat must have been over 18 inches long. Standing there on three feet, and trying to reach in, was a challenge.

Oh, my old man did. The old kind, not the SX70 (he got one of those, later). But Polaroids were for Special Events - and he was no cat lover. A special event for him, would have been the cat getting out and never coming back.
Oddly, when that cat came down with feline leukemia about twelve years later, he almost had come to like it. But by then we were all gone, and the fish were just a memory.
