[jwh0818]

You know you love aquariums when your planning a new tank instead of getting ready for your baby due in 2 months

^^^ true story, ask my wife

 

[Goldfish loach boy]

When you would rather take lunch to school the whole week to save for a new fish

 

[Darylb]

Jwh I'm in the same boat as you I'm having a baby too and I'm planning my tank

haha that might be the last thing I do..

 

[Fishdude3233]

You sit in front of all your tanks, for 6 hours to make sure that the power Dosent go out. Lol

Haha awesome jwh!! And fishdude, i hear ya! I have a similar post a few pages earlier!

When the most soothing sounds to you is the gentle hum of the filter and little trickles of water, and you end up falling asleep in front of your tanks!

 

[Alan79]

You join 9 local trade groups on facebook to watch for locally selling tanks. One guy has 5 tanks for sale now. Will see what i pick up if anything.

When you tell your bf that for valentines day y'all are gonna spend 6 hrs in the car going to get cheap tanks off Craigslist, and he does t even bat an eye.

 

[Krissycakes]

When you can get your bf stuff for his tank on Valentines day or special holidays.

The first fish I had was a betta, so I bought a 20g just for him.

I yell at my parents for over feeding my fish, like I know exactly how much food they should eat.

I get protective of my tanks.

I spend more time with my tanks than I do with my family. As embarrassing as it is, it is addicting ><

When you sit there and think of new ways to set up tanks and make water changes easier... Speaking of that anyone got any ideas? I was thinking of putting all my salt water into a big tub and use a return pump to get it to the tank anyone else do this or am I just being lazy

 

[Alan79]

Plenty of people use return pumps to lift the water from a bucket to the tank. You could call it lazy or an efficient allocation of effort. I personally think the latter sounds better. Use that extra energy to travel to the LFS.

The only therapy for the pain of missing out on a 55g when the price had been agreed to, you had the cash in your wallet and pickup and payment was all that was needed is retail therapy at the LFS.

This weekends purchases
New life spectrum fry pellets (so my juvenile Rasboras and Tetras can eat some)
Crypt Balansae
Hairgrass
6 Kuhli Loaches
Lileopsis
A camera specifically for better tank shots (used and still not great quality)
charger and batteries
SD card

When your hubby is sick of hearing you need Prime and buys you the econo-size:

Seachem Prime 20 L/5.3 fl. gal. - Water Care & Condition, Fw - Aquatics

 

[Alyxx]

When not having any tanks running means you have no idea what to do with your tax return. Or when you hit all the local pet stores to get some much needed fish therapy after a rough day at work. I miss my fish.

 

[Golfball98]

When you have 3 tanks and 1 fish. Lol

 

[jwh0818]

When you buy a better phone with a better camera to take better pics of your tank!!!

 

[Brookster123]

When 436 of the 600 pics on your phone are of your aquarium..

I have albums on my phone with just my tanks and mates.

Its funny what kind of faces my friends make when I am trying to show them a picture, and having to scroll through all my fish pics. just to get to it. XD
