+SChrisEV Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Yes, you read it right. I have Tank Separation Anxiety, pretty badly. It's a very sad condition that NO ONE should have to deal with. I try to ease my pain by visiting my LFS, and that does help, in some ways. In others it make it worse. I sit there and think.... "that cool looking coral would look SO nice in that spot of my tank"... then I have to hold back the tears and anger. Some good news, I have secured a short weekly visitation with my tank masked as MAINTENANCE, that will help, but I long for the day that I can once again see, and touch my tank daily as much as I need/want. At least I have hope! That I know of there is no treating TSA except reuniting with your tank. If anyone knows of any good ways to even temporarily ease the suffering, I'm all ears. While this post is in jest... I do miss my tank! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 There is a cure, but it's expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wade Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I honestly can't imagine not having a tank now. Just the thought of it is sad. Almost every time I walk by it I must stop and look in and all over it which I know is at least 6 times a day. I feel for you dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planeden Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Did you try putting up the ARC calendar? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mFrame Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Did you try putting up the ARC calendar? +1!!!!! Another sure cure is to come over and do my water change and tank maintenance for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+KimP Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Same here! You can visit (clean) mine anytime! But really, you could set up another tank to hold you over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SChrisEV Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 Careful what you offer up, I might bring a chair, some beer and just hang out at your place all day/weekend. May end up doing some aquascaping, you know to give it a comfortable feel . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo662 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Chris, we should start a support group...it's torture having a new tank sitting in the garage and not being able to set it up yet. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planeden Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 if you're at the fish store and miss the buying experience, you can always pick up something pretty to bring with the chair and beer. it'd be cheaper than a therapist. i don't think insurance companies recognize TSA yet.

Timfish Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I feel your pain! All my family think I'm antisocial and don't love them since I hate taking even a few days off to go visit them. They think it's sad my cat actually enjoys the trips more than I do! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
