Sit back, relax and watch for a while.......

I've just had the in-laws over for dinner and a few drinks......A few plus a few more in my case

. Everybodys gone now after the usual tour of the tanks (They always sit and look, asking what new stuff is in there etc etc)

I'm just sitting back now actually enjoying the main marine tank and the little 10g FW by the side of my chair.....

NO REALLY........

Just enjoying them, no thoughts of 'I'll just empty the 3mm of skim from the cup', 'I'll just move that coral', 'This, that or the other needs doing', 'oh, i'll just clean that smudge off the glass'

How soon you forget how cool your new Crab/Shrimp/fish is to everybody else because you've brought it just to do a job, clean something up, or it fits in with the other inmates etc etc, in the tank.

I'm just gonna crack open another beer and enjoy them cool fish in the big tank swimming around them funny coral plants

Cheers all

I've had beer

Totally agree with you there. We get so involved in maintenance, decoration, placement and whatnot that we forget why we started this whole thing to begin with. The pure enjoyment of life.

I'll drink to that anytime mate!
