Right here boss! Just spent my food money on L46 Let's see who else is a college MFKer that can barely afford the hobby and misses meals because of it! 
This guy... NC State University, I live off campus in an apartment and have a 10 gallon and 45 gallon tank - still looking for a job hoping something opens up towards christmas cuz right now no luck haha
I actually am a father a 15 mo old daughter, another due in March. I also have a full time 40+hr a wk job, work part time on the weekends and I have a 90, 150, setting up a 180 and getting a 55. I also attend a college half time and go year round!
i live on campus and i have 4 tanks back home a 125, 72, 25 and a 10. i try to go home once a month to clean them up, but usually i have my brother doing my wcs
I live off campus and have 6 tanks in my apartment. I don't spend all that much money since I don't keep any expensive fish. My most expensive fish were my pictus at $8 a piece.
My GF spent more money on her Africans than I did on all my fish combined.

I am! I got to sam houston state university in huntsville tx but live in college station tx, and I make the commute every week. I have 18 hours this semester and I work 20 hours a week. I have a 240 gallon long, and 46 gallon bow front that is a grow out tank and a 1 gallon betta tank. I have a few more tanks in the garage but cant afford the space, money or time to set them up. I like in a 2 bedroom townhouse. and yes I am broke from my habit! My Saturdays or Sundays consist of cleaning my tanks haha. It takes me about 4-6 hours to clean them and service the filters every weekend.
I am in college. I go to school three days a week, work 30-40 hours a week and spend my time in between doing water changes, feeding and doing homework. Whew!
