I can understand what You are saying Jeff.. You can only try so hard..
Thensometimes if only one person is posting, it almost seems like a soapbox.
Itsure makes it almost a fine line. I know I read it out of interest, but I
havebeen one of those persons who do not dive into the hobby due to the fact I
knowI would love it and could not afford the cost. It becomes an addiction
afterawhile. My Father and 2 uncles were into it and it surely can become
anaddiction. One tank and I'd be hooked and at this point I could not afford
it.I remember with my Fathers tanks, I found there was nothing more peaceful
thanto sit there and watch those fish.. I still am that way even when I go to
theDrs. offices that have them. And thats only a small part of the hobby. Wish
Icould get into it, but can't at this point.
