lol Note that in the first post of this thread he only says hobbyists and aquariums. Nowhere does it say saltwater or reef. He must be confusing us with those easy going freshwater people. :razz:

Campbell River:biggrin:

Ladysmith. I stress the most when I am away from the tank and worrying that everyone is ok.

Powell River

Not sure it lowers my stress but it certainly keeps me working and out of trouble

Hello again
 

I thank everyone so far for their input and look forward to more. To answer the question as to why i am taking the census, I am counting the amount of people in BC who have aquariums more for my own knowledge because I truly have no idea. I understand that keeping a saltwater system can be stressful but the idea I am going on is proof that the sights and sounds of an aquarium especially saltwater can be very calming. Once again thank you for the input so far and please keep it coming.

I'd say stess relief for my self and the kids.
The wife is starting to sit infront of the tanks now..Must be working she keeps finding things for me to buy for the tanks...
