My Family Fish Room!

[Timbo]

hi Greg!

thanks for the pics of the room, looks great!

was interested in your LSS pics as i have several that look very much like yours. were they originally Wayne Ng's?

[Greg Richardson]

Thanks for the comments.

Eddie. Correct. Been using them for 2 years.
I scrub them with clorox. Good rinse. Fill them up after drying inside with a towell. I do this every 4 months also. Never a problem.

Timbo. Correct. All fish in that tank except for one LSS are Wayne NG's.

...and a computer!! All set Greg ~ I love the blue walls ~ makes the whole room stand out ~


Very nice and cozy!! Gotta a comfortable chair Greg? If not see Kenny

Kindredspirit. Thanks. Those blue walls look better in person imo.
Five layers of paint on them. Four different shades of blue.

Yep. She's right. I have been tempted to sleep out here. LOL!

It's almost as if you have set up a "tank" for yourself!!

I bet you get alot of stress relief seeing those beauties swim around.

Greg awesome room,nice looking fish.your so right a hobby is meant to be fun and something you do in your sparetime, but when it takes over it becomes work and ends up stressing you out ! I have 28 tanks but they are fully plumbed so while im feeding them i flick 1 tap and all get a w/c for 15 min twice a day nice and easy !

cheers thanxs for sharing your slice of paradise with us !

Dave. That's an interesting way to look at it. Yep. It does relieve stress.

Darren. WTG. That's the only way to do it with that many tanks!

Looks like a very cozy setup!

What was really cool about this is my Wife is behind me 110% in spending the money for this room. She enjoys coming out here more and more.

My two kids are starting to come out here more also.
So my end goals are being met.

That's 90% of the battle of fishkeeping IMO is having a supportive family (especially spouse) who doesn't mind you spending the time and money that it takes to keep up with the hobby. It sounds like you have that part working for you.

It's always nice when an individuals hobby (or in my case, obsession ) turns out to be enjoyable for the whole family.

Nice setup Greg.

Kathy

[Greg Richardson]

Kathy. Yep.
But I think she is going to get her new carpet sooner then later. LOL!

[kjmillerfw]

Well there are trade-offs in life that even the playing field at times...but I still think you got the better end of the deal.

[Greg Richardson]

I agree!

I'm lucky to have a Wife behind me in this. Many times she'd ask me what is left to get and I'd mention a few items and say but maybe I should wait as that is another 100.00 or so and she'd say no if you going to do it do it right. Blessed indeed!

Fabulous Greg! What a nice looking fishroom not to mention that awesome discus.
Thanks for sharing!

Holy crap. Does she have a sister. Or offer classes. You are indeed one lucky man.
