[ctxmonitor]

Got addicted.. to saltwater aquarium of course..

Just wanted to let you all know that I am glad to find this place.. Nice to know there is a forum that's for the New Yorker like me..

The bad news is that I am hooked! I am losing sleep hours, time, and most of all money. The saltwater, reef hobby is great, fun and exciting.

I beginning my first saltwater tank, or trying to at least.. Considering that I haven't gotten any tank for it yet.. But I do have the equipments that is coming in one by one.

Nice to meet you all...

Nice to meet another addict. It's a hard problem to deal with, , but at least you have friends and sympathizers (or a shoulder to cry on).

You know we meet to discuss our problem on a regular basis. We form a big circle and one member begins with:

"Hi, my name is {insert name here} and I've been an addict for {insert year here} years. I can't stop staring at my hermit crab or {insert favorite coral or critter here}.

So, WHO'S GOT FRAGS??????????????????????????? I need a fix NOWWWW!!!!"

Just curious, how did IT caught you?

Me, I think it was the posts that people had place and the pictures..... Many of them.. LOL..

Should I think of a way to get out? I don't think there is any rehab center that would take us in, right...

I just accept my addiction, and live with it.

It also helps to run out of wall space, since I have 1/2 of my living room's walls filled with tanks, i.e. 120 gallon, 55 gallon, and two thirty gallon tanks.

Solbby you've got my dream room with all those tanks. I just moved up to a 55 from my 15 gallon. Thats the biggest move I've ever made. I can honestly say that I'm addicted too and I try to live with it but my mom kills me about the $$$$ i put into the tank. Oh well.

It just started with the statement "I need a quarantine tank for my main tank". Then my main tank became extremely stable (same fish for years). So "why not make the quarantine tank into another reef tank!!?!?!" It was one of my BIGGER ideas!!!

But, a problem arises, then you need a quarantine tank for the quarantine tank/soon-to-be-new-reef-tank.

and the cycle continues, , LOL.
