Current tanks & fish
In order of tank size as of April, 2006
Start dates are approximate, and tanks have
surely evolved since that time.

Started: 1998
55 gallon
5 clown loaches
8-ish cardinal tetras
who-knows-how-many rosy barbs.
(thick vegetation has allowed a lot of babies to survive with no help from me)
2 Amano shrimp
This is one of my favorite tanks; it's in the dining room and I enjoy their antics while eating dinner.

Started: November 1998
130 gallon

This tank required both a leap of faith, and redecorating the living room. 
Who needs a couch?  :-)

Okay, I kept the couch, but moved it to another wall.  Tank is nicely viewed whether sitting there, or in recliners, or in the dining room.  In May 2000, I changed out one of the light strips for a double 30 watt strip.  I was very happy with improved lighting of the tank, and soon after got another one for the other side.
2 angels
1 tinfoil barb (Barbus schwanefeldi)
1 silver dollar (Metynnis argenteus)
3 green Severums
2 SAEs
3 Corydoras paleatus
6 other cories, name is escaping me at the moment
This doesn't sound like much, but they fill the tank with their activity.
The tinfoil and the silver dollar were "gifts"; they are constant companions and keep the tank busy, sometimes to the annoyance of the others. 
Started: March 1999
