A confession

[Treebeard]

I am addicted. There. I said it. It all started in late November when my fiancee' announced that she wanted a marine tank, and I somewhat hesitantly agreed, thinking it was very difficult to keep saltwater critters. Now,after a mere 5 months, I get the shakes and my palms become sweaty when I come within 3 blocks of a known fish store. I find myself spending crazy amounts of time polishing the glass on our tank. I lose sleep if I think one of the residents of our tank may be ill or acting strange. I spend more time preparing supper for my marine family then I do for my human family.

My name is Reid, and I am addicted to saltwater.

Hi Reid, My name is Darryl and I too am addicted. I find myself looking at girls less and fish more...sad but true...I check out LFS's whenever I get out of work..Sometimes I make an excuse and drive up to the local fish store just to see if anything new has come in..even when I know there isn't. I would rather spend $20.00 on a new fish than on a case of beer. We reefers sometimes sound like pathetic creatures but for the most part we seem happy and harmless. It's a pricey hobby{addiction} but a fun one, so KEEP ON REEFING!:l ol:

At least it's a "good" addiction

I'm Oscar and I'm addicted.

Even though I only have hermits and snails so far I find myself pulling up the chair and watching the tank and not the tube (normally with a beer in my hand).

Fortunately no LFS within 1.5hrs drive. I am concerned about what will happen when I add corals and fish. Will I be able to go to worK? Can I set up a web cam?

Hi, fellow addicts. I am Karen. I cannot decide if I should shut down this hobby due to expense ... or buy a bigger tank ... or two ... or three.
