Other than cars,

Photography of course.

Toy Trains,

I have a buncha DVD's though not sure if it's enough to count as a hobby..

I use to be into others but due to lack of time/space I haven't collected in years but still have Video Games/Comics/Baseball Cars

Beautiful tanks guys! I have 55+ saltwater tank, fish only, can't afford the lighting for anything else. Also have three freshwater tanks and 1,000 gallon kio/goldfish pond.

Other hobbies: collecting anything Earnhardt, wildlife photography, counted cross stitch, crochett, recently got a telescope so add astronomy to the list, playing with my African Grey parrot (Dusty), computer/internet, prettty much anything outdoors related - fishing, hunting, kayaking, beach, hiking.

glad to see we have a few salties on here, lol. I'd check craigslist for lighting. I got my 2 high quality 250 watt metal halide pendants with ballast for around $250 on craigslist and all I needed to do was buy bulbs.

We also have 2 freshwater tanks, a 55 gallon community and a 75 gallon with 4 fancy goldfish, but they don't look nearly as nice as the reefs. No major problems with the freshwater, just overgrown plants and algae. Its funny, I can't seem to get the freshwater planted tanks down but a reef is a piece of cake. Our reefs are at the point now where their paying for them self. If I want to add anything or if I need any supplies, I sell a few frags which usually covers the cost. If only the same thing was true for my monte, lol

Thank you. Our landlord doesn't allow cast or dogs so we found another pet, lol
I don't have much on-line regarding the 55 yet but will at least post some pictures of it here next week. It is not RR and will be replaced sometime next year with something RR in the 100-150G range. I originally set it up as an aggressive fish only and planned to keep the nano as my reef only setup until I found the cracks the nano. The 55 is simple, Mag HOT running carbon, Octopus BH100 skimmer, RKL controls the lighting/wave maker, and Tunze osmolator for my top off. I have been running BRS two part as my only additives. Inhabitants: Six line, Clown Trigger, Niger Trigger and one very nervous Green Chromis.

Here is a pic of the setup shorty after it's cycle.

Thanks for the tip labnjab. I've never thought to look on Craigslist for that.
