Lately seeing a lot of new members on MR. I have notice a couple of new Stores. So is the hobby growing? Also Reef-A-Palooza coming in a few weeks. Definitely a sign of something positive. For me I'm a Reefer for Life....to the greatest hobby I've been in.

Have you ever been in the beer brewing hobby? If not, you should try that too :). I'm in both and i think they are both pretty awesome.

They both have lasting amounts of enjoyment where there are active periods, then there are periods where you can just sit back, relax, and enjoy the greatness you have created.

the beer brewing hobby is definitely picking up steam but how can that compare with an entire world filled with characters?

you can fill a whole room with characters if you bring a batch of your home brew to a party if you catch my drift... :P :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:

I feel like its definitely growing. It's more common now to come across families and individuals who own saltwater aquariums. They may not necessarily do there own Maintance but at least they get the children into it at a young age which hopefully will turn into a full fledge reefer.

Ps: I'd like to brew my own beer. Any tips for a beginner like myself?

more price friendly places open up, the more people are going to join this hobby. At the end of the day, its an expensive hobby to have. If you can find a place with good stock and great prices, you'll get more people to enjoy this. Unfortunately, it is still a business and everyone needs to eat and pay rent

TL;DR - yes its growing, as long as LFS keep prices from skyrocketing
