My wife was hesitant about me starting a SW tank after I had a FW tank several years ago that I sometimes may have neglected the necessary cleaning, etc. Eventually she said that I had to take the FW tank down. So when I was ready to start a SW tank she was worried that I would get bored with the tank and it would end up as an algae infested eyesore. So after starting with a 38 gallon bow front tank in the living room she decided that we needed a tank in the bedroom. So we have a 28 gallon biocube in there. We have spent some great time doing day trips to find the next coral at some of the local and not-so local fish stores around Denver. We have actually had a few discussions about what tank the latest coral find is supposed to go in. I have to keep up with all of the tank maintenance, but as long as I'm working on that it gets me out of other housework.
