Canreef couples are you or aren't you/easier or harder when you're both addicted?

its a tough one to answer......its cool that we share a common interest and after all the hobby is how Laurie and I met.......but we both have very different ideas on how to do a tank and stock it and such.....it would definitely be a multiple tank household methinks......which could and would be very expensive...... its very cool to able to both go and spend a day driving around to the LFSs and both enjoy it and consider it time well spent.....on the other hand it usually ends up meaning a bunch of money spent.....all in all I consider myself lucky to have found someone that shares in my passion for the hobby................even if it means we'll probably be broke because of it......now as for who's more addicted???????not sure about that one......Laurie's heavily addicted to fish.....and Im addicted to it all

I am addicted and Shauna is an enabler with a touch of the habit herself. I am in the enviable situation where my wife just shakes her head as I spend money on the tanks. Unil lately she has not really had anything to do with the tanks except for watching the fish but we(she) is getting a seahorse tank set up in the very near future( as in it is ready just needs ponies ) and that one will be all hers.

Im into it myself and do it all myself BUT, my husband found a coral beauty angelfish and LOVED the look of it so he bought it for my tank. He doesnt want anything to do with the tank at all but he sometimes goes into my office to see its pretty colours. lol
My 11 1/2 month old son runs down the hall and into my office to watch the tank. If i cant find him around the house i check my office and hes there staring at my tank... and picking at jars of fish food.
