Why I hate this hobby

After multiple tanks, numerous lights, uncountable floods pre-float valve, astounding expenses eating up tax refunds and Christmas bonuses, points where my blood pressure was registered as a blip by NASA satellites, chunks of hair pulled out during chemical investigations, time and effort of water changes and titrations, prepping food for animals as my dinner was on the table, a garage full of tanks, pumps, and plastic bins full of crap...
I stood in front of my tank tonight and thought, 'It would be nice if I had more space...'

There's no such thing as a tank too big. I'm only limited by my wife and bank account, more so my account, I'm allowed one tank per my wife.

I've been running a reef tank for 2+ years now I have come to the conclusion that there are too many things to experiment and one would always want more. Therefore I think about what I want to accomplish and give the tank 2 to 3 years to mature then it's ok to move on.

The only thing you could do is get more wives. :)
I am still on my first starter wife, but it has only been about 43 years so I am ready for another tank and wife. :eek:
