	How Often?????
SuperMummy! Mega Fish Posts: 1207 Kudos: 915 Votes: 30 Registered: 03-Jan-2003	Once a day at least for each tank! I love to peer in and see that everyone is ok, and to watcht their fishy interactions. Personally I see that as being the main motivator for keeping a beautiful tank for the beautiful fwishies

Well anytime I'm in my room my eyes just wander to the tanks. If I'm trying to do homework, I'm really watching the fish. Plus I can watch all 3 tanks from my bed, so I fall asleep watching them every night. When my reef gets set up, I'll prolly be distracted from the computer, since it'll only be 2 feet away from here.

So_Very_Sneaky Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 3238 Kudos: 2272 Votes: 201 Registered: 10-Mar-2004	[font color="#000080"]Voted For: Oh you mean I should quit looking at the tank and get a life? I can spend umpteen hours sitting in front of my tanks and watching. Most of the time I spend watching TV I actually am watching the fish and listening to the tv. I think my family and friends are starting to wonder if I will ever lose some of the "fish"ination I had from day 1. I highly doubt it.

Oleta Ultimate Fish Guru You can\'t rollerskate in a buffalo herd Posts: 3397 Kudos: 2260 Votes: 186 Registered: 16-Aug-2001	With tanks in practically every room of my house it makes it really easy to waste alot of time staring at aquariums.. Once a day is minimum on all but my busiest days.. We've even been talking about possibly putting a tank up at my lab fingers crossed

koi keeper Moderator Posts: 3203 Kudos: 2033 Votes: 240 Registered: 29-Dec-2001	only a few times in the past year. They are well taken care of, but as far as anything beyond that just do not have the time for it. Doesn't matter they still make me happy. koi Empty chairs at empty tables, the room silent, forlorn.

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	Ok here is a pole that I've been thinking of.... How often do you just sit down and enjoy your fishy friends...not cleaning, feeding, or the likes....Just sit down and enjoy watching the antics that they provide?

Theresa_M Moderator Queen of Zoom Posts: 3649 Kudos: 4280 Votes: 790 Registered: 04-Jan-2004	At least once a day I enjoy planning the tanks, stocking and setting them up, even maintenance but it wouldn't be worth it to me if I didn't just sit down and enjoy looking at them. Right now our living room is set up so that I can lay on the couch and watch two of the tanks, it's very relaxing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean

Shannen Banned Posts: 1160 Kudos: 1686 Votes: 98 Registered: 17-Feb-2004	My tanks are in my living room and my bedrooms so there isn't really any way of not looking at them all the time.
