At what point have you reached your limit in keeping aquariums. For me I have around 15 (not all saltwater) and I think I have reached my limit as far as maintenance and upkeep goes. Working from home definitely helps this as I have caught leaks and fish jumps when they happen. I'm curious as to what other peoples limits are. I know some people online have over 100 but those are usually for sale purposes and not just for personal keeping.
 
I have 4: 40b, 15g, and 2 4.8g all of which are AIOs. I’m about to upgrade my daughter from one of the 4.8g into another 15g cube. And that will be my limit due to space and available time/energy for maintenance.
 
No limit. I have six tanks, three displays and three frag tanks. I also run business from home part time.
