Losing interest in the hobby need some help!

[shooby]

I know I have just recently started the hobby and was off on a great foot. But then I lost fish after fish. Now things are picking up and everythings going pretty well but I just not as enthusiastic as usual. I'm not really into the hobby as I one was. I need some help because I love this hobby and I dont want it to no longer be a part of my life. Its just I'm in highschool and a lot of people dont appreciate the beauty and magnificence of saltwater. There are no clubs or anything around here that I know of so I seem to be slowly fading from the hobby........ :sad I need some advice or sumthing!

Maybe you need to ask yourself what attracted you to the hobby in the first place, and determine if that reason is still important to you. Internet forums like this one give you a chance to share your experiences with others in the hobby, if others near you don't appreciate your hobby. Plus, as time goes on and your tank becomes even more established, maintenance will become easier and you will enjoy your tank more. Your tank can also be a good source for relaxing and winding down from any stress in your life. Hang in there and and give it some time...good luck!

I tell ya what, ever since I got my tank set-up, my tv hasn't turned on once for pleasure purposes, I seriously sit and watch my aquarium, it is soo random and I like how all the fish interact and chase each other!!! And they are a great chick magnet!!!
