Put it this way. I don't do it to make money, I do it for the hobby and also to pay for the cost of hobby. No profiting and I trim my colonies.. very expensive.. for example. I'm in a townhouse, my hydro was 350 for the last 2 months. Vs 170 without tanks..
Plus I'm a hoarder.. I fully understand that if your doing it for business, then register..i have over 20k worth of equipment and corals.. I know I will never see the money again which is expected in a hobby.. but it is nice to get a bit of help.. i ran for 3 years without selling a piece of coral.
And don't get me started on dead fish and corals I have lost..
Face it vendors are vendors, hobbyist are hobbyist..
