Time in being time that a reef tank is set up without crashing or time in the hobby?

I won't say I'm in it for the long haul things happen and desicions have to be made but as of right now I am planning to be in it for a good while.

Lets say time in total. I noticed while browsing the FTS thread from a few years ago that so many of the people are gone.

Just coming up on 3 years. It was an accidental hobby for me....can't say what the future holds, but no plans to quit anytime soon.

Have had freshwater for 30 years, but this is my first go at salt. I love fish-keeping so I can see myself doing this forever. If my system fails I will just try again!

Still in.. But at a much easier level. Sold off my big tank and not growing frags any more. I still have my RSM, 2 deep sea nanos and a small nano. I'm too busy ( insert old and lazy ) to spend as much time with my tanks as I used to.
