I second this statement ! lol

A story about animal theft . .
Years ago , when I was still living at home, I was on a backpacking trip. Well one of my sisters decided to have a party at our house on a night our mom wasnt home. Her friends even went around passing out flyers to strangers. Money and jewelry were stolen out of my moms bedroom as well as my other sisters. And about 90% of my tarantula collection was stolen. I later found them in a local pet store still in my containers. I even told the owner what was writen on the bottom and he said I would have to buy them all back. Since he paid for them from some guy that walked in.Never did get them back. But it just goes to show you people will steal anything , even tarantulas !

Had some extra time on my hands and figured I have about 1100 gallons of frog tanks in a 800 SF apartment, this does not count the 140 gallons of aqauriums and 40 gallons of geckos space.

Not that it matter but since the question was posed i was curious to see what all those vivs added up to.

George, you do have too much time. However, we need the cubic space of the apartment since the tanks are 3 dimensional and stacked.

I added this up myself - including dart vivs, lizard cages, and the torts, I have around 2400 gallons (+/- about 100 gallons) in a 10x27 room. This does not include the 300 gallons worth of exos that are sitting around empty.

My God man! What are you doing??!!

I'm not even going to try this as I have one enclosure that is over 5,000 "gallons" on it's own. The funny thing is this would still only be a small fraction of my 2,000 sq ft basement so I could never win this contest . . .

Pacing myself, Matt. Pacing myself. A man needs other things besides building vivariums, lol.

Why didn't you just go call the police right then and there? If the store owner refused to return your property, he could have been liable for receiving stolen goods.

I was young at the time and didnt have my name on the containers so didnt have proof they were mine. It would have been my word against his. If that happened today I would have done more about it in a heart beat.
