when the people at the LFS know you by your first name. And your last.
when you already have 11 tanks and just want one more........... a 125g!

When your fish tank lights go on in a morning and an airplane tries landing on your roof
Seriously - when we have all the lights on in the front room (4 tanks), we don't need the main light on.
We only realise when the timer switches them off and we plunge into darkness

When the only food you eat is stuff that looks like flakes or worms.
When you talk to your fish...and they talk back!
When, instead of eating with your fam, you dine with your fish.
When you boycott eating fish and lead a protest in front of the seafood resteraunts about cruelty to animals.
When you get your paycheck or allowance, you count up how many fish/tanks/supplies you can get.
When you count down the days until you go to your lfs. When you go every day.
When you start inviting your friends over to your fish's funeral.
When you "wed" your fish.
When on your answering machine, you can hear all your filters running in the backround.
When you start wondering why your breath smells like fish food.
When you ship out your tv and comp. to make room for more tanks.
When you call your fish when your on vacation.
I can think of some more, but I have to make dinner, so I'll name more later.

.......when you lose two hours of your life trying to find where the little beggars are hiding.
Hey JobySp, Thats perfectly OK if your a Red.

when you look around and you are surrounded by bettas. you discover the addicting world of fish forums and start spending all your time on them (causing your wife to just shake her head and sigh). you discover new things to grow, like baby brine shrimp, vinegar eels and grindel worms. you realize that your friends don't have a clue what you are talking about when you tell them about it. you are always checking out jars in stores wondering if they would be good to house fry and juveniles in. you drive miles out of your way to go to a monthly betta association meeting where you realize that all the fish freaks there are not so different than yourself now. you spend hours gazing at all your fishies, you have hundreds of blurry digital pics of your fish uploaded onto your computer and you can't wait to show them off on your fish forum of choice. your place always hums from the filters in your tanks. people come over to your place and wonder why it's always soo warm inside. changing water becomes an all day event.

When you are counting the days until your oldest child goes off to college and you can finally have a fish room, then the second child so you can have two, and the youngest makes three !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
When your at a party and find yourself in a far corner with three other people talking fish.
