I have to agree with this as well it does costs a lot and I think most people get out as it is a lot of work to keep reefs running so they stays looking good.
That and it is hard to just go away somewhere for a few days.
The environmental issue does worry me somewhat but then I think it is people like us that might one day be able to save some part of the reef when it all dies off.
