You know you're an aquarist if...(just for fun)

When, after 6 tanks in the house you are looking for a tank that could go in the middle of the room and house at least 250 gallons

Thought about selling my PS3 an 360 along with my spare 19" LCD tv for tank money.

But le gf says no more tanks for now :'(

My bf said the same thing but I guess I can't complain too much because he got me my 30 gallon for my birthday.

You have a heart attack when doing water tests because you didn't realize you sat your nitrite test infront of the ammonia test, so when you glance over at it, it looks green and you can't figure out why. Lol

There are lots of coffee table tanks out there, I think I saw about 4 on Amazon.

You know you're an aquarist if you worry your floors will collapse from the weight.

Love it! Our kitty has a name but we just seem to call her kitty. But the fish all have names which my son and I use, but my husband is just goes "which kind is that," then what do they look like?"

LOL! My husband heard me talking to "Robert" and came in the room saying "who's Robert?" I said "him!" pointing happily at my albino Kribensis. Once he realized I was actually talking to a fish, not another man (goof ball!) he thought the fish was a "robert fish"

When you spend at the pet shop,then you at the grocery store.

 

[Domscards1]

When you buy treats for your fish and not for your kids.

 

[Jlsardina]

When you get so tired of the LFS so you get a backer and open your own store!

 

[Starka]

When you don't mind eating fish flakes with your breakfast. I didn't realize that I had fish food on my fingers when I ate my toast until after. Lol it didn't even taste half bad

Exactly! When you wash your hands more before touching your tanks than after!

Yeah, my mom thinks I'm nuts whenever I talk about my fish. She says it's way too much work (she kept fish for years) and I say the work I put into the tanks is sort of soothing and fun. At least she said my tanks looked really nice when I showed her pictures at Christmas.

Yeah no joke there haha I can't talk to anyone about fish in my family at all, except with my dad, but he dosent know the difference between a Molly and a yellow tang hahahaha yeah, I love doing anything with my tanks lol I love it when my family complements me on my tanks lol they make fun of me a lot for it though haha

 

[Alyxx]

The highlights of your week of being sick was your new tank finishing it's cycle and then moving your fish into it! Yay!
