You're willing to be late for work because you have a shipment arriving and want to properly acclimate it.

Which reminds me, I have two shipments coming in today and work at noon.

$100 - spent on - Sand, Rock, or Supplements.... seems cheap.

When you watch discovery you can name individual species of corals and sps by genotype.

You have planet earth on blu-ray but have only watched "Shallow Oceans".

You know more about the Fish in the Reef Bio-Tope than the curators at the Georgia Aquarium.

You ask more about their filtration and supplements than the inabitants at the aquarium.

You can create a siphon and have mistakenly swallowed tank water.

Any cuts on your hands mysteriously only take 1 day to heal due saltwater exfoliation.

You check on your tank before you check on your children.

You have enough plumbing supplies to fix any issue with 1" to 1/2" Pipes.

You are the only kid on your block that did NOT need to go to the hardware store to setup your fridges icemaker.

You think bottled water tastes like sewer.

Your family has never consumed anything with a TDS Value over 0

Your fish eat better than you.

You know more about LED's than college professors.

You know what foam fractionation is.

You know more chemicals than the average joe that makes calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity.

Your the only guy thats looking for driveway heat in the middle of summer.. and its not for your driveway...

You set up a dosing pump on a float switch to ensure your Christmas tree has enough water.

Great...anyone try it yet?

Yeah. But the tree holder is to small to accommodate a float switch . However. I have a work around. I started recording how much water I'm using a day to top it off. Then once I have a weeks data I'll set up an aqua lifter pump on a timer.

You go shopping with your wife, and the entire time you looking around for things you can use for your tank. Does not matter what store, I look at containers, turkey basters, vinegar etc. haha.
