How to stop my addiction !!

[Fenral]

Yep! And you two are pretty rare! Seems like most here are pretty much alone in their addiction. I'm actually shocked that mine is OK with a 10K buy in with livestock after that. She just wants all the money spent as soon as possible! I'm a lucky man!

I detect danger here … is she perhaps seeking this as an excuse for a court case to prove your insanity…

why not just go 180 for your next build?

I am going for a 180g build next. Just can't at the moment. Spent like 10k on a 20g build. Wife thinks the 180g will cost 100k. haha

Wait till you start murdering coral you grew to squeeze in the corals you purchased with no place to put them.

how did you spend 10k on a 20g? Is the tank lined with diamonds?

Sorry but is there a typo - $10k on a 20g? You bought an all-titanium tank and all high-end corals?

Equipment in Australia is premium pricing. Ecotech cost alot over here.

Ooooo! That must be it! The Great Aquarium Conspiracy of 2024! Yep.....we're all just a bit insane I think! To spend as much as we do on a fish tank (that can crash for a multitude of reasons) takes a special kind of thought process!

I can help you end your addiction. Ship me your corals free of charge lol.

If you guys think having a wife is a problem, try being two husbands who say yes to everything the other one wants. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ be grateful someone is keeping you in line.

Meh it’s only crazy if you crash the same way again and again…

So I would just like to ask everyone how they stop themselves from buying more corals.

I run a 20g reef tank with over 60 different corals currently in the tank. Running kalk as my top off with 10ml all for reef to keep the alk from dropping.

I can't seem to stop buying sps frags !!!!

save all your receipts and add them up at the end of the year, that should help put a damper on the spending in 2025
