[Killietalk] Feeding 120 tanks

["Rudnick" <spark at quik_com>]

>  I now have 30 different types and 120 killie tanks,

  I am curious!  I know that there are many killie keepers with similar
numbers of tanks.  My question is - How do you feed this many tanks?  And
when do you find time to pick eggs?
   I understand in all likelyhood your have some sort of automtic water
changing system.
  I have 5 species ranging in size from Script. geryi to blue gularis, with
about 20 tanks and about a dozen shoe box size and butter containers for the
fry.  Chopping worms for the young, sorting out the large worms for the
gularis, and sorting out small brine shrimp for the juveniles, and I find
that I spend a good 2 hours daily just feeding the fish.  Egg picking and
cleaning the fry containers take another hour minimum.  By my figuring,
should I add another 10 tanks, I would need to find another hour for fish
tending.
