The most annoying thing in this hobby?

[plantedtankman]

For me.. it's putting backgrounds on my tank.

For me it's aquascaping or explaining why you shouldn't keep fish in bowls.

I enjoy aquascaping actually, it buying everything that's annoying to me.

 

[George9]

For me, it's explaining to people why I have no fish in the tank for a month while its cycling. No one seems to get it.

 

[Lynx99]

The expense of it all!

 

[bettaowner]

Aquascaping is fun but it can be hard to figure out how you want the tank to look.

Leaky tanks..


That's what I'm dealing with right now, & trust me. I'm pretty annoyed.

I find not soaking my arm pit when sorting the filter after a water change impossible I'm too short for such a tall tank!

Fishkeeping snobbery

Are you a fish snob? - YouTube

Fishkeeping snobbery

I loved the video. Very funny.

On a similar note what I hate is people who jump on someone who doesn't know something instead of respectfully teaching them. Around here more teaching goes on than not, so that's why I like it here.

Haha! Very good! I genuinely laughed out loud!

Those are annoying in or out of the hobby...

I also agree with the annoyance of deep tanks. To get to anything on the substrate of my 56 cube tank I have to stand on tiptoe and reach in nearly to my shoulder. The ridiculous markup on some aquarium supplies is annoying too.

While working at my LFS, the thing I hated the most was cleaning the sponge filters. The airline kept coming of and I had very little space to reattach it.

Buying everything

Costs...


And the fact that I have a 10g. I knew I should've got a bigger tank to start off with, lol.

I just stand on a chair '-)


Most annoying thing is not being able to put all the fish I want together. On the upside I just need another tank
