    How many tanks did it take before you noticed that your house was either getting overrun by different fish tanks, or that you had a good problem and needed to possibly downsize?

    What is your overall best recommendation when it comes to a cheap, but decent-quality, LED fixture that will last a few years at least?

    Very good points - are there any specific type of paint that you had or could you possibly use a thicker type of spray paint to achieve the same thing?

    I personally have painted a few of those particleboard-based stands, and I would honestly highly recommend it for a few reasons;

    1) You can ensure the stand doesn't have the cheap, thin, and sometimes not wholly covered paint on the stand
    2) You can add…

    It was a hobby as a kid. Well, I'm not sure if I messed with fish "that much". Anyway, I got into fish because they were fascinating to look at.
  • When I was a kid, I'm sure I overfed them. They died often. That was probably the reason.
