Not sure if it's just me, but recently I've had an addiction - donating my $$$ to my LFS and exchange for fish. I enjoy burning gas every Saturday. Every time I came to my LFS I went home with 1 - 2 fish (already did research of course). Sometimes leaving the store empty handed makes me feel anxious. I also enjoy waiting for my $200+ orders from Liveaquaria. It's just fun and gives me something to look forward to. I know this is bad because if I keep doing this my tank will go banana soon. Not to mention I'll starve. I'm trying to stop this but the feeling of waiting until Saturday to go buy fish is so strong.

Now I can say my behavior is normal :) even though my parents don't agree much :)
The only time it will stop, or let’s say ease, is when your tank is full, or you have no money or food

My tank has been full for a while now, so I had pretty much stopped going to the LFS. So I’ve just got a new tank 4 x bigger to feed my addiction!

So, my name is....... lol

I like the part that you stopped going to Lfs because your tank was full, but then you got another tank... Lol. Made me laugh out loud :D

After reading, these , I cannot believe everyone spends without a proper budget. You must have one as priorities have to come first. Consider doing one like I have.

I Three expensive hobbies. My wife, firearms, and my tanks. I find that I rotate my paycheck between them. It is a really delicate balancing act. If things get out of balance it isn't good.
