120 gallons of freshwater a day...200 a day when all the breeders are going...

About 1.5 hours a day devoted to feedings, cleanings, bbs hatchings, sanitizing equipment...

My wife riding in the bed of my brothers half ton under a blanket for 20 blocks between furniture so 4 buckets of fish/corals could make the move to the new house in the heated cab...whats even worse is her offering so they didnt get cold in the bed at 5 degrees below...incidently...only because i couldnt fit in the hole between the furniture

Pulling 3 all nighters over the past few years to be able to clean tanks and prepare enough water for the thousand dollar fish orders coming into the airport at 8am

Needing 200lbs of live rock for a new tank and cleverly disguising it as a 3 day vacation to vancouver...which turned into a group order for 700lbs of rock and 1500lbs of salt...

No hair on the knuckles of my left hand from scraping inside the clownfishs tanks when i wasnt invited...

Your 300lb buddies that drive forklifts all night come over and as soon as they walk in the door "got any new fish?"

Any and/or all drinking/gambling/general dumbassing around must revolve around water change night

Geek? Damn Right.
