..........if when your wife tells you shes going into labour and rings the hospital to let them know you on your way you scream in the back ground "honey, ask them if they have internet access" just so you can browse marine forums while she gives birth.


........when the above question is the most meaningful conversation you have had with your partner since entering the hobby (addiction)..........

I really need to drive her to the hospital all.
Cheers,
Frankie

You might be a reefneck if:

You wife has been asking for months for you to change the bulb in the closet, But you change your tank bulbs every 6 months so that the par does not shift.

You know when you stay up half the night watching the tank with the red LED"s and your trial head mount light on Red mode.
When setting up your system you make 6 trips to HD in one day for those fiitings that you where short on when you thought you bought all that you needed on the first trip.
