You Know You Love Aquariums When.....

[Fresh2o]

Well i just made a single hole in the top of the 2 litre bottle (edit) in the lid so you can remove the tube to mix the yeast sugar and water. if you make it small enough that the tubing is a tight squeeze and you have to drag it through, most of the sealing is already done for you. I have a hot glue gun that i use as insurance. A light seal on both the inside of the bottle top and outside and it is good to go. you can also cut the tube and apply a valve that you can switch off to refresh the bottle. Good luck if you try it. it is very simple really. Get the seal right and you have a cheap CO2 source that shouldn't ever suffocate your fish. I have run three bottles at once to try and clear algae and the fish seemed fine for the fortnight i had three bottles running.

Ditto. I've had good luck with a leak free seal using a 3/8" hole and silicone airline tubing. If you cut the end of the airline tubing at sharp angle, you can feed the tip through the hole in the lid and then use needle nose pliers to pull it through..

The only books you read are about aquarium & fish.

The high point of your week is when you realize your Kuhlis have learned where you try to placefood for them and sit in the area and watch you when bloodworms go into the tank but not to their area. I'm being accepted by the school. They got their own batch of bloodworms dropped in with tweezers I'll teach my kuhlis to publicly beg for food or die trying.

You then spend your night in awe as you do your weekly water change

You keep thinking of new breeding projects and new fish tank stocking combinations even though you are supposed to be DEcreasing your fish stock/number of tanks.

Yup a big bunch of fish nerds!

When you help a customer you meet at the fish store for an hour!

Definitely agree. Want to get some fish for the tank I am supposed to be taking down...and have convinced my sister of the plan

When people are coming over and you clean your fish tanks and not your house

When your a teenager and you have more fish than freinds

When you chose to clean your tanks over going out to eat

When the only thing you use your phone for is on the go fish research

To piggyback off that,
When your phone only has pics of your fish and tanks, not your family
