How much time do you spend?

[jimmihendrix]

well heres my first poll. I spend probaly 30-60 minutes each day taking care of my auqatic lil buddies. But I'm on the pc probaly 10 hours a day(home business) and watch my tanks all the time so I'm lucky in that way.

I spend around 3-4hrs each day but thats because i have:a 55 gallon, 35gallon, 25gallon, two 5 gallons, three 1gallon betta bowls so thats a good amount of tanks to clean, monitor, feed and ofcourse just stare at. Then there's peeling and taking care of all the live plants and fry .

60 mins a day through the week...and maybe 3-6 on the weekend.

On average I'd say about anywhere from 15-60 minutes.

Ive got 2 tanks,1 in my room and 1 in my living room so i see them most of the day unless im out.I always walk past and say hello to them.My fish ar'nt just for decoration they need company too like proper pets!

I spend loads of time starring at the fish tank at the moment (i voted 1-2 hours though as I don't concentrate for long) - we have the 105g in my lounge and I am due to have a baby next Saturday and my pregnant brain can't cope with much else right now so I sit on the sofa just looking! Apparently watching a fish tank can help with labour pains, so here's hoping!!!

Hubby does most of the cleaning and maintenance at the moment because I'm not into lifting the buckets of water etc but that probably takes him about 30mins a week.

Well congrats on that and good luck!

I breed Bettas as well as having my community tank. So I have lots of Juvi's to feed and do daily water changes in their barracks, so 2-4 hours a day.

I spend as long as I need to, but watch a good amount during the day.

I spend anywhere from 8-16 hours on my comp (jsut launched a pair of websites, need to edit lots of stuff still, as well as keep up with my other sites) and will get pissed off at something and then watch my tank for a few minutes and then go back to work.

Same with me. Tanks right next to my computer in office!

I spend 3-4 but of course that includes the "gazing" i do most of the time

 

[Earthgirl]

I spend about 1-2 hours a day. That includes cleaning, doing head count and watching them. My tank faces the dinning room table to you can either eat, chat or just sit at the table and watch them....
or are they watching us?

 

[Guppylover]

Around 1-2 hours each day. I always watch them at least for 20min, then there is the feeding, water changing, water gardening (trimming the plants and cleaning up the Java Moss) and ect.
I find it fun though... not wasting my time!
