"when you three year old is able to successfully identify each type of fish in Finding Nemo"

When you put 40Gal of water on your basment floor from a rookie mistake, ruin your pool table, chair, hutch and other things stored in the next room, oh and wall damage of course and the last thing on your mind is getting rid of the tanks that caused the problem in the first place.

you actually bothered to read this thread all the way through.

When your almost done purchasing...
for this tank atleast...

You know you are a reef head when you buy some thing for the tank and you have not sold what you are replacing yet. Then decide to keep both because you may need it..

Bill

you know you are a reef head when in your signature you have one more fish will not hurt..... no offense intended..

Bill

When you have a dream about shopping at Red Coral and they have an Orange bubble coral for sale... I might be the only person to ever see an orange bubble coral ;) (in my dreams that is)

It was amazing looking by the way

You know you're a reefhead when...you know the salinity of saltwater just by taste.

and all the levels...except for alk...that ones a bit tricky.

You know your a reefhead when you have upgraded tanks 3 times and never got rid of the old ones. lol 2 are still running. I may need another 200 gallon tank one day why sell it. haha

Ah yes...I have gone from a 55 to a 80 to a 120 to a 180 and they are all still running...lol

And a 150 waiting in the wings...build thread soon...hmmmmmmm??

Yeah I went 29 to 65 to 220 to 240 the 29, 65 and 240 are running the 220 is in my parents shed wrapped in tarps. lol

sorry lance i dropped my ring in your tank and she was helping me out. but you came home so i had to leave......:mrgreen:

Oh, Ok. Just so long as you didn't take any corals with you.


The ring wasn't copper was it?

Well my finger turned green Lol

LMAO I've been busy so I missed posting on a few threads, glad I caught up on this one :mrgreen:

You know you're a reef head when other people start quoting things about you in reef posts :lol:

You know you're a reef-head when your new 220g blows and dumps over 100g on your carpets and you setup a replacement tank a couple of weeks later.

You know you're a reef-head when you buy the place you're renting mainly because you don't want to ever tear down and move your 210g reef tank.

I did it because I had not seen you post on this thread yet and I know some one would inform you. Reef heads stick together...:lol:

Bill

Ok, here is one more --

You know you are a reef head when you are planning your wedding and picking out rings -- and you go for the titanium one because it is less reactive and won't corrode in salt water :biggrin:

That's awesome, I'm glad you did :biggrin:

You clean the kitchen sink for 5 minutes with really hot water and a cloth so when you clean your filter sock out in it nothing kitchen-related will get on it. You begin cleaning the sock out (and totally fouling the clean sink) and in the other side of the sink is a load of clean dishes drying out.

i kinda did something simular but i was cleaning skimmer cup... boy was i in trouble

When you lure someone over for a few beers on a saturday night and then tell them "Hey i need to build a tank stand.. i have all the materials ready to go. it shouldnt take too long..:mrgreen:

Ya i worry more about getting kitchen debris on my aquarium stuff more than i worry about getting aquarium debris on my kitchen stuff....

You could lure me with the stand build. If there were beers it'd just go slower!

you bite your tounge over shop situations (hack friggen fake ass daughter who pretends she's a tattooer even though she couldn't tattoo a proper line if her life depended on it but she's the boss' daughter so we all tip toe around a friggen 17 year old to avoid her tempertantrums and bitchfests...wait...what) because you just started to build a nice 75 gallon Reef....fml

:lol: Not too hard to do considering the other person you lured is just as much of a reef head :razz:

I knew what I was getting myself into.......but.....mmmmmmm beeeeeer:biggrin:

what did you lure me with Laurie???:twised:

Note to self...do not buy a used stand from ElGuappo or his friends....


:lol:

Mitch

I believe it all started from talking about a wrasse :wink:

When your 1 year old daughter points to a tank at the LFS and utters her first official word, "fish!" :lol:

I love it -- I remember being always frustrated with my daughter when she was 4. They she made me sooooo proud. A friend of hers was over and called one of my fish a "nemo fish" and she responded with "It's a clown fish, not nemo, idiot"
Had to give her a big hug in spite of calling someone an idiot.

when you think that canreef is the best place to find a new g/f.......not e-harmony:mrgreen:
