You know you're addicted to aquariums when.....

[skinz78]

Your credit card is continuously maxed out and it has nothing but what is in the tank on it.

when you stay on google every night making a wishlist of corals to pick up on payday

 

[nixer]

when you switch to night shift just so you can get all those corals shipped to you finally lol
when you have just as many fish tanks in the garage not setup as you do in the house running :D
when the fedex guy can identify your packages without looking at the address labels

When someone says mp 40 and you think of a powerhead instead of the gun. When your fedex guys says "I don't know how to say this, but uhh your box is leaking" and when you get three different controllers, each better than the next in just 3 months, and when you tear up walls and cielings to connect an aquabus cable for a huge system that had to be put in your garage.

Your freezer has more fish food than human food.

When you lose ac and they ask you where you want the window unit and you request it In the room with the fish tanks, not in your bedroom.

Too true lol.

 

[mgdmirage]

When you wake 2-3 times a night to check the tank to make sure there is no problem with the overflow or the sump.

I HAVE switched to night shift to get my corals into the tank as soon as they are delivered. (still work nights!)
I HAVE 5x the money into my 28g tank than my car is worth.
I waffled for months on if I should buy a harley or another tank.

 

[Reef UP]

When your tank takes up half of your living room, and you get rid of your favorite recliner and put a frag tank in it's place!
When you use your aquarium addiction as dating criteria ("so what do you think of saltwater aquariums") lol 

 

[GR808]

When the first thing you do when you come home from work is to go and look at your tank to see if everything is ok.. This is before Hi honey, hi kids.

 

[m'akoyPINOY]

When the first thing you do after an earthquake is call you're wife and ask her ."honey,pls check my tank if it's okay!:xd:

You know you're addicted to aquariums when....

1. You attend monthly meetings
2. You call your wife to dose because you forgot to - and she doesn't have to ask how much because she already knows
3. You don't buy a house because it doesn't have a fish room
4. Your next house purchase revolves around a basement for a fish room
5. You frag every coral you can get your hands on
6. Your friends know when not to come over, because you are busy doing "fish stuff"
7. You are the president of a "fish club" (as my wife puts it)
8. You buy a tank because it will look great in the next house you buy (just did this)
9. You put a down payment on a new coral
10. You come up with ten things about why you are addicted to aquariums in under two minutes
