Hi, I'm Bill and I'm a victim of Spousal Coral Addiction. Took her a minute (literally... just a minute) to find her first one. Then the second... then the 23rd. Many people disregard the trauma this horrible affliction can cause to a household. When we met last July, I had a 28 nano with just live rock. Now we have 5 tanks. She's out of control and I don't know what to do!!!

Just kidding, I'm as bad or worse than she is!

Hi, my name is phill and im a coral addict. It all started at the young age of 7. I seen a show on nova about the ocean, it was with Jacques Cousteau. Ever since then i have been hooked to the ocean like a addict. It went from there to shark week. My dream is to swim with a great white outside the cage, and scuba dive on every reef known to man.

I. Need. Help.

OMG I just am so happy I am not alone in this addiction at least we have each other when none of our other family or friends understand us LOL ... And I think Jason caught the bug because he now wants to set his own nano tank beside HIS side of the bed so he can put all the pretty coral he picked out in it.

Keith.. you didnt have your hands in my frag tank at the swap did you???? ;-)

Ill confess, I am also an addict. I now have NO ROOM for corals in my tank. The sad part is.... as I was placing the new ones in my DT, I looked as some of the old ones and those that arent as pretty and thought.. hmmm.. maybe I should hide those in the back to make room for the new ones... I did pull one that wasnt doing very good. I almost tossed it. but its now in my frag tank. ill be hacking it up tonight maybe to see if I can get it to recover...
