Algae Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 The water spill leaked and warped (cupped) my hardwood floor. It was the turning point. It was either give up on salt water or go on. The look on my wife after seeing the warpage was not pleasant. Thank God she is allows be a child on occasion. Huh? Say that again!?

jadams7 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 your idea of a 'very productive weekend' includes scraping algae off glass, cleaning out gunked up fish crap out of a cup, and re-stacking a pile of rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowman Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Your idea of a great day is hanging out with Roger going to all of the local fish stores instead of playing golf or fishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 All your wife's tweezers have rust on them from being used to frag corals The most abundant substance in your house is superglue gel You keep a red flashlight near your tank, and every time you wake up at night its another opportunity to use it and see whats going on in the tank.

epicenter Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 You have a permanent spill boom in your dinning room, when you tell the bank they will get their mortgage payment after this up grade, when first things first means, "happy corals first & then the kids", if there's any thing left.

theJenchild Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 When you no longer own a TV because you spend so much time staring at your tank that the TV isn't worth it, and the money you got from selling the TV paid for a couple new frags!
