How much time do you spend on your own tank?

[kwirky]

Wondering how much time everyone else spends on their tank. Also wondering how some people ballance the rest of their life with the hobby?

Daily would be a difficult number to break down. Weekly, I'd say 3 hours.

Well, in terms of fish-related stuff, I made about 9 phone calls & received about 7 in the last 24 hours (total about 3+ hours). I spent another half hour packing up some fw plants to ship to Northern BC & a light to ship to PR. I am now on my way to the post office and to Greyhound to send off the packages. I also spent much too much time surfing the fish-sites.

In terms of fish maintenance, usually spend a few hours a week mostly feeding, cleaning the glass, moving or fragging corals, cleaning out the skimmer collection cup (5 min. every 4 days), and topping up.

I also spend several hours every week visiting LFS.

Yeah, I'd say I'm obsessed

2-3 hours on weekends doing regular maintenance (water changes, testing, tweaking, renailing frags down because my wrasse has rooted underneath). Sometimes an extra hour fixing stuff I buggered up during the regular maintenance (ie frags, rockslides etc)

I put in about 4-8 hours a week... really depends on how tired I am after work.
