That is a fantastic point. Its the learning part. People are always telling me i know so much about animals - i'm always thinking, "there is so much I don't know". However my love of fish came in handy while playing trivial pursuit at a party once. i knew what the study of fish and fish health was called, "icthology".

i think learning about something your interested in is like a kid in a candy store... you can never get enough... and i don't mean we all go cram the books and study..thats definitly not me.. but i discuss and discover with all of you and i am facinated as to amount of learning i do...:D and the amount of knowledge i gain from you all... just conversing... some of you really amaze me.. your so gifted..but the best part is we share all our animals.. all our fish...

The websites a great group, and the hobby itself, imagine trying to write everything down, you'd be writing for a decade and by the time you were finished 90% of it would be outdated.
But i am kinda the studying type before i even put water in my first tank i was researching every little thing i could possibley find, spending atleast 3 hours a day on it, and still feel like i know nothing, and was following the routine for over a month, and still learn new stuff everyday.

I thought I was the only fish freak that does this. Apparently, you're the same like me.:D When I'm bored at a gethering I go on youtube to look at video of my fish tanks. This hobby is great because it's a hobby taht keep us home spending time with the family and away from the bar scene.
 
I agree, fish keeping is a perfect hobby for me and I will never ever leave it. Nobody will ever make me leave it either.

Nope I do it too!
I am always thinking what I can do to make my tanks better.

I really Enjoy MFK alot, it gives us all a chance to meet people from all over the world! and see their amazing set ups and dream that they was ours lol.

I remember when I first joined MFK, I found a new species of fish that I had to have so I wrote the name down, and this happened daily, and then I would take my list and search the different species on youtube and watch the videos for hours literally and it seemed like maybe 30 minutes!
