I am in the process of getting out of the hobby as we speak. I have sold my fish and corals and am blacking out my tank to kill off the hair algae growth. I am getting out for four reasons: (1) $$$ it costs a fortune; (2) too much time and effort is required; (3) tired of fighting algae and other such nuisance stuff; and (4) I, too, do not want to spend money on something that is depleting natural coral reefs. I still enjoy hanging out on the forum and seeing everyone's beautiful tanks and creatures but after I sell what I have left I cannot see getting back into it being in my future.

This hobby is not for the Faint of Heart.

It is a very expensive hobby. For the compulsive buyer there is always something new and exciting available every time you go to the LFS.

It is also an extremely difficult hobby. Just when you think your tank is doing well all hell seems to breakout. Even the most seasoned hobbies run into trouble from time to time.
