So with the economic status we are in, I was wondering how many people have been quiting this hobby. I am at a point where it is very hard to justify the really high electric bills and constant maintnace costs related to owning a 125 gallon reef set up. It would be an easy decision for me if my tank crashed or something like that. But it is going strong and I know that If I tried to sell everything I would make only a small fraction of what i have invested. I know that I will not want to keep the equiptment if I shut it down because it would just get old and probably be outdated if I ever started again. So does anyone have any thoughts on this. Do you keep spending the money or do you sell/give away your stuff and move on. I love this hobby but it has become a love/hate relationship lately, which in turn is starting a trend of neglect on the tank which is not fair to the animals. Any advise from people in the same situation.
