| What do your family and friends think about you being interested in fish? I have become aware lately that I am thought of as being slightly daft for wanting an aquarium and fish! I get either a sort of pitying "Oh", or a more obvious "What do you want to do that for - it's boring!"
Do you get the same, or is it just the people I know? :lol: |

| Definitely not the only one. And the more fish and tanks you have, the more obsessed you become and the more pitying looks and comments you'll get. They just don't realize...:lol: | |

| It's definately viewed as a bit of a 'trainspotter' hobby isn't it? | |
