What are peeps planning (if anything) over the next few months with their hobby of fish-keeping!!!!

I am reducing from x5 tanks to x3 tanks as i really feel through lots of trial and error, for ME, anything over x3 tanks takes away from the pleasure of the hobby, but thats just me and my circumstances / space for tanks. If i was breeding and growing on fry it would be different.
I am losing a Rio 300 and some fish and also closing down my 2-footer Endler/Guppy growing on tank. I am selling lots of guppies/endlers and putting the most attractive one's back into my 300 litre planted community (space being made by moving on x9 Golden Barbs and a Keyhole Cichlid)
I have thinned about my Malawi tank, its a lot more "Mbuna focused" now.
I am going to slightly pack one of my Rio 300's out for a few months, maybe for the rest of the year (my Bichirs, Reed Fish and 2" Dat are moving in with my Parrots!) and i am then toward the end of the year going to really try and secure a 5x2x2 or similar in place of one of my Rio 300's (the packed one)
I am also going to invest in Polyfilter for my soon to be potentially over-stocked Rio 300 and also for my Malawi.
I am going to have quite a few fish for sale, bits and bobs.
The reason i think i can accommodate a 5x2x2 later in the year is that 3 tanks is fine, it would swap for a Rio 300
I like to see all sides of the tanks, if i cant see the sides it bothers me (learnt from experienced) at the moment i have x3 Rio 300's side by side with about a 6" gap in between tanks, and i dont like it, need he gap to be about 12-18" if that makes sense!!! Hence i am pretty sure i can get away with a 5x2x2 and a Rio 300 down the line in my lounge. |

Looking to get another 6x2x2 this year and am aiming to keep Satanopercas in it, what type will be decided by what is available, but hoping for daemons or juruparis. Am looking to move the 4x2x2 into bedroom along with the existing 6x2x2 and have a 40gal half hex with a couple of fish in it just now, but not sure of long term plans for it, and 48x12x15 has some grow out F1 acaras in it, again, don't know what the long term plans will be as yet. |

Uncle, i dont wanna sign on dotted line just yet, but in theory would you be up for helping me move some tanks about in the flat, not for a few weeks, probably be an hour or so. I could pay you in Britlenose maybe |

I am getting into fancy goldfish - the real show quality ones. I got some amazing broadtail moors from a breeder in torquay, plus some nice calico veiltails.
I am also trying with discus. got some quality stock from chens, but just cannot seem to get them 'happy'. dont think i have the 'discus' touch

the above is what mine which are younger should turn out like as they are from the same line and looking superb (got 10 of them).
also pic below of calico veiltail, mine are looking nice as well, but only yearlings so not quite as developed.
