You Know Your A Reefer when:

[Pauls]

Just a little game i thought would be fun. Everyone add your own in.

You know your a reefer when:
You spend more time with your reeftank than with your kids.

You come home from a weekend away to discover an algae coating your front glass, as you start to scrape it off you notice small white critters and leave the algae because you dont want to disturb the micro plankton.

You wish that RF would start sponsering Nascar

You dont watch football anymore cuz no teams are named after coral

You tell your wife you cant "do it" cuz your worried about your new fish

Ok its your turn, Have fun.

When you keep having people show up at your work and meeting on the sidewalk making trades of some sort...

 

[CarlaW]

When you drive 250 miles to go to your LFS.

You miss your turnoff 2 times because you are building your new tank.

You start to wonder what skimmate would taste like

 

[Krish]

...When you pay over 50% (duty on avg.) for stuff for your tank and on top of that, you overnight ship it UPS

...When you wake up at 3:00 in the morning to see if your skimmer isn't overflowing and you don't need to top off

...When you get frustrated because you don't know what next to buy

...When you only had about 300 posts in August and now you have:shock: :shock: :shock:

 

[Skipper J]

When you visit the local LFS street thrice a week to check out for new corals and fish arrivals.

When your friends at work ask how your reeftank going almost everyday

When you get a sneak look at Reeffrontiers website at work

When you print threads from this site to read on your idle time

When you print threads from this site to read on your idle time

ROFL! I'm glad I'm not the only one . Makes great reading for long trips.

....When you drive down the street and see the familiar glow of actinics at night. Then, you resist the urge to knock on the door to talk reefing.

....When you've spilled enough water to fill a swimming pool.

 

[Ed Hahn]

When you plant your PC in Front of Fish tank, anticipate the phone ringing to talk about fish, You have three subscriptions to Saltwater Magazines. You send funny pictures of your dog to people just to chat about Fish.

Hey, Did you get your Dogs teeth fixed? (still wanting to talk about fish, ancient mind trick, hope he will part with that coral)

 

[Tangee]

When the overwhelming sadness hits as the lights go off - then you know it's time to go to bed...

 

[NaH2O]

ROFL! Good one!

....when you leave for out of town, and your tank sitter has more instructions and emergency contacts than your child and pets do...combined.

 

[Detri]

When you spend WAY more than your significant other says you can spend to set up your 35g. And still plan to set up a bigger tank.

When your significant other says. "We should get a little bigger tank so we can have all the fish from Finding Nemo." Looks at you and says. "What? It's for the kids."

 

[Krish]

You'll may hate me for this...

...When you live in the Bahamas and can't wait for the next moment to go out and get something new for your tank

 

[Detri]

Nope don't hate you, just get pics man.

 

[Krish]

Nope don't hate you, just get pics man.

You know when you're a reefer when...

You are buying a new digital camera in order to post better pictures of your tank! (A lot of guilty people here)

 

[spongebob lover]

you knwo you are a reefer when you keep talking to your spouse about your tank until even when it's dinner time.

when you spend your last cents on something for your tank.

 

[Krish]

...When you've put on your diving gear and considered getting in your tank! (Well just for a peek with the goggles)

 

[Blazer88]

How about;
-When your tank uses so much power you can't run a vacuum cleaner without blowing a fuse......so why vacuum?
-You are planning a bigger tank DURING the upgrade you are already currently doing
-Brag about your skimmate and take pictures to show people at work
-You actually enjoy cutting creatures and gluing them to rocks

 

[spongebob lover]

LOL Blazer why vacuum when you got a broom

 

[Krish]

When you have 6 RF windows open trying to follow all the threads at once.

When you are attempting to plan a trip to Texas to speak at an aquarium club for freshwater subjects and pick up frags for your reef tank in one trip .
