That's what I do. It's a good way for me to enjoy my son and my tank at the same time.
And I definitely agree with the lack of television, especially at that young age.



I think there are probably as many reasons why people get out of the hobby as there are people involved in it. I'm sure everyone reading this can imagine at least one scenerio that would force you to abandon your tanks. Hope that doesn't happen to me, but one never knows.

Going all out on a 10 inch tank huh? :razz: :razz: :razz:

[quote="CptCleverer"] Well said. I think that about sums it up.

At one point I had a 150 gal with 75 gal sump, a 180 with a 50 gallon refugium, a 54 gallon and a 46 gallon, oh and a 7 gal nano. It was nice, but I think after all that I was happier with just one tank, my 46 gallon. Now I have taken down the 46 gallon tank because I'm moving at the end of the month, and in our new place, we're just going to have one display tank, probably around 140 gallons. It will be more money to stock, but after having several tanks, I think one "nice" tank is sufficient. Now that I have no display tanks, I have considered throwing in the towel many times. I have a baby coming in 11 weeks, and I know that's going to change life drastically. And I want to give my child the best, so that means less $ to the reef hobby. Who knows, I might throw the towel in after the baby is born...

I have enjoyed this thread. Thanks.
