I could go on all day about the summer heat, because these are all things I've done in the last week. You know you are a hardcore reefer when:

it's too hot to sleep because the fan is blowing on the tank.

You leave the air conditioner on while your gone so your tank keeps cool.

You take a break at work to call home and find out the temperature of your tank.

You put dark curtains over the window so the sun doesn't heat up your water.
