All of us here know how cool and intersting keeping fish are, and how obsessive it can be.

How many of your friends think your just weird to spend hundreds of dollars on large aquariums and interesting fish?

I told my parents that I bought an aquarium. And they're like "Why? We have an extra 10G laying around you could have used"
me: "well, I bought a bigger one..."
them: "how big?"
me: "50 gallons.."
them: "Why the heck do you want such a big aquarium?"
me: "Cause I wanted to"
them: "..... well, how much did it cost?"
me: "140 dollars....... (good price! - all included).
them: "well.... its your money I guess."

And all my friends make fun of the fact that I go to petco or petsmart almost every day just to check out their selection. And that I get excited when I find a new petsmart that i've never been to, and am excited when I find they have something the other ones don't.

I'm an 18 y/o college student, and all my friends just think im weird for liking fish so much, even my G/F, and she's an animal lover.

How many of your friends or family think your weird for liking fish so much?
 
For keeping fish? Not really probably because I'm not totally obsessed with fish like you seem to be. Your crazed fish obsession will probably climax in a few months give or take.(If your new to this)
 
Yup, everyone thinks I'm crazy. I've had my 10g for about 7 years and my 55g for around a year and a half and I'm certainly not tired of it yet.
 
Friends? What friends?? I had to get rid of them all because they didn't like my fish......

:D
