I notice a lot of people who sell everything and get out of the hobby when they have a baby. It is just my personal opinion, but I always think "why the he77 would you want to do that". Babies grow up quick, and I think it is very important for them to grow up around things like this. A tank takes time, but not that much time. If you got into this hobby, I assume it is because you love it. If you love it, it isn't hard to find time to do it. So taking care of it for the first year or two is harder. I have not found it to be that difficult and I have had tanks since my son being born and he is now 3+. He loves everything about our tanks, which we have 3 and soon to be 4. He can just about name every critter and coral in there. Every day he eats in front of the tank and watches it for a good half hour per meal. I think this is very good for them. My suggestion is, don't get rid of the tanks!!! You will kick yourself if you ever want back in this hobby and have to purchase stuff again. And your child will kick you when they grow up because you didn't have those things when they were a child. DON'T DO IT PEOPLE.
I would love to hear others thoughts on this.
