What do you hate the most about fish keeping?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Lack of funds when a fish that I have been after for a long time is suddenly available but when I have the disposable cash and plenty of space such fish are no where to be found.Most of my friends are not into the hobby.
 
what i dislike the most is when they die,and going to the lfs and not being able to buy every fish that i see and like! lol it means more tanks lol and no room for more tanks!!!
 
deaths.....coz on the one hand ur really upset (well i am) but on the other...yay i got more space and can get a baby albino bichir

I hate when people ask me what I hate about fishkeeping....it's really annoying. :grinno::grinno::grinno:

j/k-What I really hate is that I can't afford a 4000 gallon custom tank and filling full of Asian Arowanas.
 
GAH I hate the money involved!

I also hate it when people don't understand the longing for the big tanks. I am not allowed to buy a new one.

2nd thing I hate the most is planted tanks and darned fish eating plants, and the lighting having to be just so (expensive) everything is to darned hard... AND too darn alluring.

PS CO2 is too expensive for a non yeast version. It fits in both categories of hatred for me. You'd think with all this global warning CO2 climate change etc etc stuff going on there'd be no need to add more.

The cost and the unavailability of the fish you want. Also the cost of keeping the fish that interest you. I wish I could learn to like cichlids!:irked:


Hit the nail on the head!! If I could force myself to like cichlids I would be in heaven, but I never will no matter how desperate I get! Shipping Costs suck!!
