    Might be a reefer when....


    ..... Spending a $1,000 on LEDs seems reasonable

    You might be a reefer if... you are 10 minutes late for work but decide to make it 20 so you can refill the kalk dripper.

    You might be a reefer if you substitute your 300gal tank for the Christmas tree... Who would do such a thing you ask? THIS GUY!

    You might be a reefer if you cart home enough water to survive the apocalypse but inevitably end up dumping it all down your toilet.

    Awesome thread!

    Yes indeed great thread. When I first started "reefing" I was mixing tap water with Instant Ocean salt for water changes. Well I ran out of salt halfway through the water change and was in a pinch. The local forum had a guy willing to give me some. I met him in that infamous dark alley and he gave me about eight cups worth of salt in a zip lock bag. Not 15 seconds go buy and I'm being slammed over the hood of my truck by two cops! No officer it is not cocaine, it's salt for my aquarium.... Boy that was one for the books.

    Wow, Glad you got out of that one!

    So, I'll fix it for you:

    If you nearly get arrested, and manhandled by the police because you were 'getting' Reef salt in a zip lock bag in a dark alley.............You MIGHT be a Reefer!

    Some if not all of you realize that this takes the theme of

    Jeff Foxworthy's jokes that end in ...............you MIGHT be a Redneck!- hey, I resemble that remark ;-)

    I still love those jokes, and used to have many, if not most memorized.

    My 2 Favorites are:

    If you go to Family ReUnions to pick up Girls.......... You Might be a Redneck

    If your most wealthy realative gets a New House, and they call you to come over and help them
    take the wheels off of it........You MIGHT be a Redneck!

    You might be a reefer if you get home from work and check the water level in the sump and feed the fish before you say anything the wife and kids......

    I slept on the couch for a week because of that.....

    You might be a reefer if... You're putting off the "to do list" to attend my local fish forums Christmas Party! Frag swaps, raffles, and a Jebao RW-15 door prize, Oh my! Fried turkeys and beer too..

    you might be a girl reefer if you couldn't possibly buy that cool pair of shoes for $40 - but you don't hesitate to spend twice that much at the LFS

    you might be a girl reefer if you make sure your "exchange" for corals with a fellow hobbyist doesn't happen in a back alley but in a open parking lot in the daytime

    you might be a girl reefer if you delay a much needed hair appointment because you'd rather spend the money at the LFS :)
