...when a month after having upgraded my 37 to a 58 and had already begun talking about the next tank which will be a 90.
...when the "quarantine" tank was about to become a second tank.

...when my parents went away for 2 weeks and left me $200 for gas and food and I spent it on my first SW fish tank(38 gallon)
....when i upgraded the 38 to a 90 the next time they went away for two weeks...which was only 3 months later

"hey man .... how's your fish tanks coming along?"

Good one Broomer5!
Well I am studying for a midterm right now and when I need a little pick me up I go to this thread. Thanks guys for keeping me sane!

I knew i was addicted when I upgraded my 30 to a 45 before it finished cycling and am planning for a wall to wall fish tank before i have bought the house to put it in> Still in an apartment

 

[jarre]

I'll agree with you Broomer5! My fedex guy goes to the tank and talks to Fats (The domino)!!

 

[nacl-h2o]

Believe it or not, my UPS man(David) has gotten to where he'll leave mine in a safe place for me and call it released if I'm not there. This isn't a sign I'm addicted is it?

...when I was at work thinking about what I could do to my tank and what additions I could do just to fit more things in it.

It's really bad when you put your husband off when he wants to have --- so you can take care of your fish. Oh well, I'll be sure and get the tank if there's a divorce. Either that, or I'll sell it real cheap to one of you guys!
On the condition that you sell it back at the same price.

 

[bethany]

how about this.. I don't have a computer at home ...
So you know your addicted when you spend all of your time at work surfing this bb instead of working....still wondering while i have files piled up on my desk....

 

[almarktool]

well,
not sure if this is bad or sad,
but when i threw out the ex-finace 2 days later I said yippee and then the 200Gall RR tank was ordered , and has now completed cycle
and has 1 marron clown

 

[moraymike]

I knew I was addicted when I set up a salt aquarium in my office because I had run out of room at home. I think that I still have enough room to squeeze in a second tank in my office...
I knew I was addicted when I started skipping out of work on Thursday afternoons to checkout the new shipments at the lfs.

[ntvflgirl]

Itchy,
THAT"S CLASSIC...bribe them for ---!!! HMM... could be very profitable, no? I read your post about your nickname...we are alot more alike than you think!!! LOL. I wish my tank was in the bedroom. It would give me something to do

 

[itchy]

now surely you don't get bored in the bed room? I put the tank in my bedroom for stress relief...for my husband or so he thinks Well that is my story and I am stinking to it. My daughter said I neglect her for the fish tank. Now that can not be true as everyone has to eat...only the fish eat first cause it takes less time. lmao

 

[ntvflgirl]

Actually, I must say that I am definately not bored in the bedroom....if I have to be honest that is. Did you read the reason that I started this post? I told you we were alike. LOL
