Is it just me or is the fish game boring now?

I'm down to 3 fish and I have no desire to get another.... anyone else have the Fish Blues Lol
 
that happened to me before. I was left with just a 55 gallon cichlid tank.

I went to my lfs randomly and saw fish and I instantly got back into it lol.
 
I got the same feeling and don't post as much. What do you think it is?
 
I have never felt that way but I guess it can be a good thing as it could curtail spending money.Which fish are you down to?
 
I get like that from time to time. I finally just scaled back and got back to basics. 40 breeder filled with tetras and red head geo grow outs. I'm in this hobby for my own pleasure, not to please or impress anyone else.
 
It happens. Keep what you have and put youself in sleeper mode. Just maintain it and do as little work as you can with it.
Skip MFK for a perido.

One word of advice after 38 years of fishkeeping. The bug will not quit. It is in your blood. It will bite back with a revenge. Of that you can be assured ( even if you sell everything and stay fallow for years )

For me its lack of space for fish. Sometimes I want a lot of fish which I have right now. Then I feel I will be much happier if I keep a wet pet

I don't know what it is Ken?

I tried the Co2 set up, tried a solo pred tank, tried pbass again... went back to teeth and still cant pass the wall. I even tried a Umbee :nilly:
Dunno... im stuck! Can't see myself shutting down but I have no desire to turn on the lights like I used to haha.

I know a new rare teeth species will light my flame hahaha
 
In my experience, during our ' bored ' periods is when our fish fare best! The least we are fretting and watching and oing this and that, the better they are...
