That is a dangerous line of work. You never know when one might turn on you.

Very lucrative occupation with GREAT benefits.
Some times it gets hard, but I always manage to get through.

I see your occupation is profitable as well.

If you get through a tough day at work by telling yourself repeatedly, "I'm getting new live sand tonight!", you might be a reefneck.

If you name your snails, you're just plain nuts. (The big nasaurrius over there is Grandpa...)

You might be a reefneck if:
You make you wife pull the car over outside the mall because you saw the corner of an acrylic display sticking out of the dumpster. Then you get out to proceed and jump into the dumster in your church clothes to see if you can salvage anything to make something for you fish tank.

When you convince your best friend to use all the money he has saved up to buy a reef tank, just so you can have someone to talk to about reef stuff...you might have cloned a reefneck!!!

You walk your 1 hour newlyborn son down the hall then down to the lobby of the Hospital so you can look at the tank in the Lobby, because you didn't get a chance to look at it when you rushed your wife to the hospital to deliver.

(Then I went to far and the baby low-jack went off)

You might be a reefneck when you get mad for having to pick up the dogs crap once a week...but extremley proud when you have to clean out the skimmer cup every 3 days...saying "ooo yeah!"..."look at that!" Ooo yea..thats some good stuff right there.... MMM hmmm.

You might be a reefneck when you buy a six pack of white socks for cleaning your glass tank, when in reality you have no socks to wear.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmffff

You might be a reefneck when

you have so many tanks in your room that your fish actually watch you, while you watch TV.

If you've ever left work in a hurry because you received an e-mail from your Aquacontroller and something just wasn't right, then you just might be a reefneck (yes, true story, and it was a real problem)

If you've told the wife you don't need a new (noun here) with the hope that it would free up future tank cash flow you might be a reefneck.

...Especially when you really needed it. For instance, new tires for the car...

If the clerk who works the seafood counter at the store sees your wife coming and asks how your stingray is, she just might be married to a reefneck (also true).

You turn up at work with salt stuck to your fingers and they think you've taken drugs.
