Staring at my tanks

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I value the power of my tanks. They are a powerful sedative when I let them calm me. They way the fish gracefully float is so soothing. My 55g is too aggressive and zippy but the 125g with the Oscar and Sunfish is mesmerizing.
 
I have been falling sleep staring at the new tank I just set up. Sometimes, on weekends when everyone's sleep I find myself watching that tank up til like 5am in the morning sometimes.:screwy:

I usually do that every time I set up a new tank.
 
I definitely fall asleep if i watch my tank for a period of time. I consider that one of the rewarding things about fish tanks, they're so tranquil and relaxing.
 
ya never fallen asleep though chair is so uncomfortable hahha
 
Hell, I'm falling asleep just typing this now, lol. But aquariums are suppose to be relaxing and can have that effect...........
 
I keep a tank in my bedroom, just so I can watch them and take work off my mind before I fall asleep. Theraputic is an understatement. I love the monster tank, but I sit and stare at the reef! Sorry, King charles (my rtc)
 
Hahaha happens to me all the time! Once I woke up wrapped in a towel with a half eaten sloppy joe in my hand in front of my piranha tank!
