There are a lot of different aspects to reef keeping, from keeping fish, to knowing about the ins and outs of a chemistry in a tank. I am wondering what is the most interesting thing to you in the hobby! Curious to know what everyone says!

For me it has to be the people. I love meeting new reefers and giving or taking in new advice and perspectives, showing each other our tanks and plans! And having made new friends. Its a pretty dope thing
Yep people are one of the best parts of the hobby for sure!

For me it’s the science behind how fish thrive, I mean it seemed simple before coming in the hobby but it’s actually surprisingly complex

Yeah, it is crazy how complicated it can get! I didn't think it was too bad either, but now that I have been in the hobby it is kinda cool seeing how every fish thrives under specific conditions

Have to agree with you there! The chemistry aspect goes over my head a lot, but I still find it interesting seeing how it all works.

all the small stuff!
looking at the rocks seeing them crawling with life all the little pods, tanaid shrimps building tunnels, small algaes, fan worms of sorts and so much more
love all the little bits
whole different world when you look that close
