What do y'all do for work to be able to keep up with your reefing hobby costs?

I'll go first - I'm a Roboticist / Mechatronics Engineer at a startup.

I’m still a student, but I’ve got a job at the university working at the paloecology lab which pays enough to keep me afloat. Just applied to phd programs so this will be my fate for a few years to come

Luckily, I got my PhD before I got addicted to reefing

I definitely didn’t do it in the right order! The stipends did not include “miscellaneous coral”
