I agree with you rambler, going to a LFS caused me to set a system back up. I made it from April till this month without a system, the only benefit was I did have quite a bit of extra cash on hand LOL. It's like a drug you just need it!!

when my tank was going through AEFW i was REALLY close to taking down my tank but i stuck through it and defeated the buggers and SO glad i didnt shut it down. it keeps me sane.when things get tough for me i go to my den and stare at the tank and i calms me down but like others said it is alot of money to maintain but if it wasnt this hobby you would spend your money on another hobby

Funny, thinking back when my father bought me my first fish tank when I was 15yrs old. 34 yrs later I still enjoy it and never did I want to separate from something that made me happy. It's part of my life and it relaxes me. I blame my wife for getting me into saltwater. I than blame Mike ny for starting me to looking into corals. "I'm addicted to SPS"...now MR and RC".."......

I haven't had a decent tank setup for a couple of years now and its freaking killing me! I have a friend that I worked with that has a 140 reef and we always talked about it and stopped at lfs and it always made me fiend even more. I set up a 20 gal but don't have money for a decent light yet so I only have a couple of damsels swimming around. I have a new job now so hopefully I can get my 125 setup soon :D
This addiction is harder to get away from then drugs!

I feel ya, I took down a 280 gollon and basically sold all the equipment about 4 months ago due to $$$ and time. I said i was gonna get back in after the holidays, well that did'nt last long. A fellow local s.i. reefer had a 30 gallon acrylic cube laying around and well thats now cycling in my living room. Even when i was out I was always on here and looking on the marketplace. VERY addicting hobby. It's a huge differnce from the 280 but it's holding me over.
