hey guys,what are some reasons why you are proud to be a fish hobbyist? ;D mine are: 1.fishes are not that simple.haha!they can be complicated compared to other pets. 2.i think our hobby is among the most "scientific" hobby out there.we apply different branch of science.besides,biology,we use chemistry(for water parameters),and physics(like that of the siphon application),and medicine of course,or rather veterinary ;D 3.we are smart. ;D,to be dedicated and successful in the hobby,we need alot of reading,researching and sometimes be resourceful and innovative.
so that's mine so far.what are yours?

I am proud because taking care of fish properly takes a lot of involved work and if you don't put that time in, it will certainly show in your tanks! So I think it shows a good amount of self discipline to keep up with the maintenance of the tanks alone.

I love it because there's so many different things you can do.
There's always something new that can be learned. It is very scientific. I never really thought about that fact until I read Danny's post.
Plus there are so many hobbyists that are doing their best to protect certain species, which I'm not involved in at this point, but maybe someday. Even still I'm proud of those people who are undertaking such a huge task.
