why are fish tanks so ADDICTIVE!

I just upgraded my 75 gallon for an even trade got the tank back from an old girlfriend for $400 and sold my 75 for $400. Funny thing is I bought it for her for $400 with $350 worth of fish , ,crushed coral and full of rock. Of course she killed killed the fish through out the rock and crushed coral and only wanted $475 Lol. I told her $400 was all i could do and she took it.

Its killing me I keep buying more and more stuff. So far $40 crushed coral and 45 lbs live rock $160. 8 fish $190 got a good deal. One big price of coral and a fish for $66 tonight. My friend gave me an coral life ro water system so of course had to buy filters for $55.

I think if this keeps going I am gonna need an intervention Lol. I really just need some more corals but its funny I just can't stop!!!!!

 

I hear you. I started with a tank i literally found in the trash. Was a28 gallon hex. Its still going along with a 36 bowfront recently turned saltwater.a 55 broke down in the garage and had to walk away from a 100 gallon possibly more cause no room. And all i can think about is where will the next one go lol

 

soon you will be buying a bunch of sand to replace all that crushed coral! amazing!

 

they are addicting. for me, it is a new challenge. my 180 has been running strong for 2 years. setup for 3. its in a pretty good place where it dont take much input except to feed the pigs of fish I have. 200+ gallons is pretty easy to keep stable for the most part.

now, I am trying my hand at a 5.5 gallon tank..... at my office.... with a HOB filter...black sand...

yea they are addicting. I so want to do a FW planted tank and a koi pond.... wife has nixed those.
