With a new baby on the way, if I suffered a catastrophic crash of any of my tanks, I'd probably shut down and sell off that tank setup. However, I have 8 tanks of various types & sizes at home and another 5 setup at the local elementary school, so it would just be a small downsizing, rather than a quitting the hobby type of reaction.

When my 250 SPS blew out and I lost everything it took me over a year to start another tank. And 6 months of running to add anything into it.....

I had a couple of crashes when I was first starting out, the first one was due to adding addtional fish without qt'ing first, the second was when i used a sponge to clean my tank that was not supposed to have any antibacterial on it, but later when I called the company they said it gets done on the same assembly line as the antibacterial ones, and is not aquarium safe (would have been good to know that beforehand). Both crashes had me really ****ed off with each one costing me more money wise, but I learned about patience and got right back into it.
