Fish Aficionado
You know your obsessed with fish keeping when...
...You think about winning the lottery you dont think about buying a new car or going on holiday but about how massive a tank you can get.
...You use more electricity lighting and heating your tanks then you do for anything else.
...You can see your house from a mile down the street because of the blue glow coming through the windows.
...You cancel going out because you need to do a water change.
...You drive 45 minutes to your favourite fish shop to get fish food when you could have walked 5 minutes down the road to get it from somewhere else.
...You leave your favourite fish shop with food... and new corals... and new fish.. and an order placed for a new light unit
...The first thing you do when you get up in the morning is to go and check the tank is ok.
...The first thing you do when you get home at night is to check the tank is ok.
...You go without things for yourself (such as food, clothes and going out) to buy things for your fish.
...There is more fish food in your freezer then human food.
...You upgrade to a bigger tank and before you have even finished filling it with water your thinking about the next upgrade.
...You know more about water chemistry then your local water supplier.
...When you move house your biggest consideration is where your tanks are going to go and how much space you have to add new ones.
...You have spent more then 2 hours just sitting watching your fish.
...You have given serious consideration to getting rid of most of your furniture to make space for a bigger tank.
Theres a few from me. Sadly enough they are all true as well! Please post yours as well so I know I'm not the only nut job on here
