    I felt like I needed to post this. I am addicted to buying corals. I have just realized it. I see everyone's tanks and want everything. I have now become addicted to buying more rare and expensive corals, Acans, montis, Blasto/micromussas etc. I can't seem to stop myself, Im being serious. For christmas I bought 5 frags, I just bought another 2 frags and now have a tremendous urge to buy more. I seem to be rationalizing any means of obtaining them. "I will work Thursday and Saturday, so that means I will be able to go to the lfs on Sunday." I feel pretty confident in saying that I am now addicted to this hobby and particularly to buying corals. I will like to start a social group for us to discuss our corals, what we want, what we get and what we can't afford.

    Count me in :) I'm always on the lookout for more. Our tank is just 5 months old & already I wish we had gone with a 120 or 180 to have plenty of room for corals!

    I am always lurking on craigslist looking for people who want to trade. It is an addiction and an obsession. I dont need a support group those are for quitters...lol

    It is even worse when you and your spouse is addicted! That is why we have six tank up and another that we are setting up.
