u know your addicted to aquariums when u...1)stop seafood because your afraid that your aquarium fish might be watching.2)have a christmas list that only reads "complete aquarium set-up.3)when a black-out happens because of all the electricity u use 4 the millions of tanks u have in the basement

sometimes, when u have no friends and fighting parents (like me), fish become more of a friend than a hobby...

the above is now somewhat outdated, as i now have lots of friends on Aquarium Forum! but fish are still friends, though!

lol...my list consisted of Philly Eagles stuff, and Petsmart giftcards. I get all mine myself...lol

Why does this thread have such a familiar feel? ;)
......When wife points out that your fish house cost over 35% more than the first house you had together. :D

I am not addicted.
I control my hobby, not the hobby controls me.

Did I mention I have 200 aquaria and 2 ponds?

you know your addicted to aquariums when you dont have money to buy gas to get to work because you spent it all on coral and fish

When you wake up BIOLOGICALLY every 3 hours to tend to fry and check on adults.



I feel bad, I didnt even do this with my own tots but I tend to the fish like they are infants.

When you put the betta fry tank in the hallway since there is no other available space, then sleep on the hallway floor to be close to the fry so you can clean and feed every two hours.

agreed... wonderful website is right...
