I never knew that having an aquarium would be such an addiction. It's. Such a huge part of my life now..
Lol that's what i needed to say! I think the aquarium hobby is a legitimate obsession.
I'm in complete agreement. Used to have 1 small tank as a child. Decided now I'm married and can do it again. Started with a 10 gallon fw. Then got a 5 gallon cause my platys had fry. And now I have a 29 gallon sw reef. I used to play online games like crazy but the only reason I've turned on the computer lately is balance my checkbook. Lol
Yeah, I started when I was 13 (15 now). I got a 30 gallon for cheap, then my one of my africans got pregnant, so I got a 20 gallon fry tank. Then I got a 55 tank for my cichlids! And I'm looking at getting a 100+ gallon now!
Im 15 too Had a 20 gallon that was a "family tank", then when we moved my dad got a 130, then I got a 10, and then a 55 and a 45 and my sister got another 55. going to use my three tanks (10, 45 and 55) for breeding bettas in the near future. My sister has an Oscar in the 55 and might have to upgrade to a 75 once he's bigger, in which case I MIGHT have another tank for my bettas and my dads 130 gallon is a community with schooling fish, livebearers, loaches, a Pleco, an angel and some others what are you planning on using the 100+ gallon for?
Nice! Thats awesome how many tanks you have! I'm jealous! I'm the only one in my family thats in the hobby, so I have to take care of all my tanks, so its harder to have a lot more! And I want to use the 100+ gal. for either malawi cichlids, or I might start a saltwater!
It's an addiction for sure. Had a 10 gallon fw tank for 3 years then got a 70 gallon sw and upgraded the fw to 55 gallons and got another 20 gallon sw. Would have more tanks if I had the money haha. And to bmarine, try saltwater!
Haha yeah I was like addicted to a dog breeding/genetics game (actually you could argue that it is an educational game, so not a total waste of time ) but I haven't been on it really since I got into aquariums
