Patience.
This seems to be one of the biggest issues. I think people up and quit because things don't go the way they want them to. They don't take into consideration that a little more effort and patience is all you need. From day 1 , every SW hobbyist should know patience is the key to success in this hobby anyways.
And I must agree with the above post. Things always come up, and it's not as if they are intended to happen this way, it just happens. There really is a lot of different reasons why people quit. But mostly, I just see people get too frustrated, and feel as if they are not recieving the rewards from the hobby as others are.
I wont lie, it's crossed my mind, more than once or twice. And I wanted to quit because of nuisance algaes.. they got the best of me! lol... but now I know better. A little more effort and patience, and I will see the reef I want to see.
