You know you're a Reef Head when you can discuss clams without getting a slap in the face.

You know your a reef head when....
There is more seafood in your freezer for your tank inhabitants than your family.

Here are some..
-If when visiting your grandmother in the hospital you are more interested in stealing an IV drip line to use for your auto top off.
-If you carry a picture of your reef tank in your wallet.
-The words “nemo” and “dori’ are considered worse than the “F” word.
I can't believe it. I was in the hospital a few weeks back as my son had pnuemonia... And guess what, I actually was looking at the packs of tubing and thinking of scamming a few.

I GUESS I AM A REEF HEAD!

Yeah when I spent some quality time at the Foothills I dreamed of borrowing one of their IV machines. In the end I did get a nice box of the purple nitrile gloves. I haven't used them in the tank yet but I think they would be safe...

Oh and one of the first word combinations my daughter put together was bubble king. Not making that up! She went nuts when I'd open the stand up and scream "bubble king".

So add brain-washing your kids to the list.

Chuck Reef Tank is in his beard as his reef. Unfortunately no one will ever get close enough to see it.

Default You know...

Hmmm, can't belive I'm gonna do this one:

You know you are a reef head when you slightly premature new son is born, and goes slightly jaundice, the nurse brings out the "tanning lights" that is about 75 X 5 watt 420nm (atinic blue) LED light fixture, and you get happy. Even worse when they won't let you go home due to the jaundice and you explain to the doctor about the amount of atinic light you have over your tank, and he agrees to let you go home on the promise that you'll leave your son laying out near the fish tank a lot....



No, I'm not kidding, and he still can't stop starting at the tank (1 year old now).
