Found this little Gem, how many apply to you?
You know you’re addicted to fishkeeping when……………………..
You’d sooner stay at home with a sick/ ailing fish than go out with your mates.
You consider it quality time with your other half when you visit the lfs together.
You are always half an hour late ‘cos you just needed to do a water change.
You can’t wait to get back from your holiday and you’ve only just arrived.
There aren’t enough hours in a day cos you’ve wasted two just watching your fish.
Your OH refers to other members of a fishkeeping forum that you frequent as ‘your fishy mates’
You notice the algae in your tank but not the dust on you telly.
Your OH cant find any black socks but you are more concerned with your black sharks latest antics.
You only realise there is a sink full of pots when you need to use the sink for a water change.
You can’t find any paracetamol for a headache but there are all kinds of fish treatments in the house.
You spend more time at the weekend talking to the fish store staff than to your other half.
You spend more time talking to your fish than your other half.
There is only bloodworm in the fridge, no food.
There is only one type of cereal but ten types of fish food that you can lay your hands on.
Your kitchen cupboards are depleted ‘cos you have used the sieve, garlic press, paper cups, baking bowl, 2litre jug etc. they are now in the fish cupboard.
You realise that if you get rid of your OH’s chair and move the coffee table you can fit another tank in.
You treat all the water before you put it in the tank – but drink it yourself… untreated.
Tools have been relegated to the loft cos your fish stuff has taken over cupboard space in the utility room/shed/garage.
You know what your tank water tastes like – yuk.
OH told you NO MORE TANKS – so you get your mates round to dig you a pond.
