I have a tank just so I can come here and bother everybody on Aquaria Central.....

I was was actually wondering the other day how many poeple keep tanks for an excuse to come to this site :laugh:

I have a tank because its relaxing, I love the sound of the trickle of my filter, and watching the fish silently and peacfully swim around. It's also something that I wouldn't otherwise get to see. Its like looking into a whole new world. There might be a little bit of that god complex too. (Oh yeah, I don't have to rememeber to water my plants every day.)
 
Wow, this thread strikes a chord because the other day, as I was stuck with my arm a foot deep in water gravel vaccing, I wondered about that God complex thing...I also wondered if there is a God if it has to deal with "cleaning our tank once to many times a week".....I love the watery sounds of the filters, I love the little bit of a tropical environment in my apartment, I love the setting goals of being able to care for different levels of environments (ie. knowing I'm not ready for a saltwater tank even though I want one)...I'm also a pisces and though I don't always buy into astrological stuff I find that I'm drawn to fish and water and such..
