I think that the fanatacism can be equal on either side of the hobby. There are freshwater fans that go just as overboard as us reefers. I know someone who is currently building an 800 gallon ciclid tank that is 72" x 72" x 36". The glass alone cost more than all my hardware. The majority of us though are somewhat more moderate with our dedication and determination, whether due to means or to desire. There are of course a lot more people who keep simple freshwater systems mainly due to the cost and the ease of care. Usually once you commit to a saltwater system, you have a somewhat greater dedication to the effort.
