Have you noticed that, as aquarists, we tend to approach the stocking of our aquariums as an exact science of sorts? Like so many hobbyists, I personally enjoy virtually every aspect of aquarium-keeping- yes- even water exchanges! However, one of the parts of this game that always drives me a bit crazy is developing and executing on a stocking plan! Now, it's not the aspect of, "I want more fishes than my tank can handle!" No, I'm pretty disciplined about that going in. With me, it's more of a question of, "Which of the 14 candidate fishes do I want to add to the tank?" Is this a unique "Scott-Fellman-is-a-bit-wierd" problem, or do we all have this, to some extent? I suspect we all doOkay, I HOPE we all do! I mean, I generally know the types of fishes I want.
