A bit of fun...Fish Nerds

[WhistlingBadger]

You're a fish nerd when, on meeting your son's new girlfriend for the first time, you drag her off to see your fish within minutes of her setting foot in the house.

But as a parent, you get REAL fish nerd credibility if it's your SON who drags the girlfriend off to see the fish.

You know your parents aren’t a fish nerd when they get mad at you for spilling a little bit of water on the floor. ?

Oh, yeah, you know you're a fish nerd when the floor in your living room has water damage...

You know you’re a fish nerd when you go out to your LFS to get some new fish during a major pandemic. Yes - that was me today. I bought 3 neons and 3 tiger barbs to UP my schools. Made my day!

You know you're a fish nerd when you order curbside pickup for your plant fertilizer but when you get there you decide that you're just going to take a little peeksie at the plants and fish in stock....

When:
"Its just a setup for baby fish!" Becomes a whole additional permanent setup

Nope! But he also failed to notice for months hahaha

In my case it was "It's just a quarantine tank" until I put a betta in there and it became his permanent home. Then I had to buy a new QT. He did notice that as it was on the kitchen worktop.

You know you're a fish nerd when, bored one day, you go into a box in the back of your closet. You're digging through books, and you come across your high school yearbook. You pick it up, hold it in your hands, and discover that there is old, dried, duckweed on it.

You know you're a fish nerd when the "decor" in your backyard consists mostly of cool rocks, driftwood, and buckets of aquarium gravel.

You know you're a fish nerd when you check into our site multiple times a day and spend over an hour or more here over the course of the day.

You know you have become a fish nerd when your dinner conversations turn into negotiations about a mantis shrimp tank and an axolotl tank, and you can't come to an agreement. Can't have either of those anyway, house not big enough and no free outlets left ! Phew!
