fish keeping.... A hobby or a life

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Id say its a way of life,just added it up and Im over 1600 gallons in tanks in my house.
 
I think you had 1 tank and you spent 1 day a week looking at it that would be a hobby. Most of the fish kept on this site require much more than that. They require daily inspection and therefore a dedication in a persons life and life style. So I would say probably 90+ % of MFKers its a lifestyle. I have only recently gotten back into the lifestyle. I have been back in seriously now for 3 years and I love it!! Although I don't have 1600 gallons yet:D I always strive to make my little buddies happy. Long live the MFKers who have devoted their lives to fish keeping.:headbang2:headbang2
 
I've kept fish on and off throughout my childhood but its been almost a year now that I've taken up the hobby seriously. They might eat my wallet dry at the moment but my fish are my life right now.
 
Lifestyle definitely! I am looking for a new place to live, and the first thing I consider when we go look is "how many tanks can I fit in here?"

I'd say 'hobby'. I've been at this hobby for over 43 years. ...but, I can quit it anytime.
