I used to be into Aquariums until I got into computers... I've got a 65,20,10 and a very unique 35? Oceanic sitting Around....

I have had over 100 aquariums ranging in size from 180 gallons to 2.5 gallons. But time moves on.......... and space has become more limited........ so I only have a couple tanks set up at the moment......... 2 180's & 66 & 48 & 33 :)

Well, I want to whats inside his current tanks to be honest. I haven't been into aquariums in a long time...

I'll eventually sell everything I have and start on my 35 Gallon Cube for a Reef Tank... That'll be a while, won't do that until I get my own place.

Just cut the magazines in half then stick them into a scanner with a feeder. That's similar to what I did for my class notes ~150 pages. Of course, you lose the magazine but your time is worth more.

How many pages have you scanned? Also how much space has it taken up so far on your hard drive?
