I've been in the hobby - on and off - mostly on - for over 35 YEARS. It's addicting. Even late last year, when I was seriously considering getting out, I just "down-complicated" instead. No more SPS. It's made a WORLD of difference. The tank just cruises along.

All hobbies have cycles. This one is just SO frustrating - because when you have a bad run, you just HAVE to prove it to yourself that you ARE capable of doing it.

Hang in there.
