...Your parents are concerned that you'll blow the circuit in your room because there's so many plugs and power strips
That's all I can think of for now  | Just curious, do you have any pic of the whole set up. I am imagining this room stuffed with tanks and a little cot in the center with a path to it. Lol.
You might have MTS if the coolest part of buying a new house is the idea of what great new set up will fit, not owning a house.
...if you have big arms because of all the water changes with a 5 gal bucket.
...if you have to tell people not to eat things in your fridge because its fish food, NOT PEOPLE FOOD. |

| | Fish Master | Yea, the whole getting a new house thing is so funny if you have MTS,
When we talk about building a house the "the basement will be a fishroom and have concrete floors" then the living room will have a space for a 125g tank.
Of coarse I had to go with the deer heads allowed to be on the walls.
My husband has MTS as bad as me. I mentioned the whole walmart sale on fish stuff, he looked up and said I wonder how much they will mark the 55g's down? I asked where we would put it, he laughed... But I have caught on to his MTS, that he won't admit to.
Hey you might have MTS if you have fish tanks in your kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and living room.... and eying your childrens room for a new tank.
Oh yea, the stuff in the fridge, I had a refridgerator breakdown a few weeks ago. So I put all of the SW foods, etc in my husbands grandfathers fridge. HE got the zoplan and sprinkled it on food and half of the container was gone before I knew what he was doing with it... luckily he is okay! |

| | Fish Master | You start lining up fish tanks on your deck..... well two anyways to grow algae, plants, and froggies. Only because you cannot throw away a cracked tank and you seal it up with silicone and its too ugly for the house. |

| | Fish Addict | You know that you have MTS when you think De-Nile is just another theme for a fish tank. |

Mine has it too...why won't they admit it. At the moment he is planning on turning two bedrooms into one so we can have a fish room...see his idea not mine but no I did not argue.
And one more you might have MTS if your hubby brings home a hot tub and part of you really wants to get in it but another part is saying hummmm wonder how many fish I could fit into that? |

I think that is a sanity check lol... |

| | Fish Keeper | We had a fountain in front of our house. It's round, with walls around a foot high. When the fountain stopped working, we brainstormed what to do with it. My dad and I really wanted to convert it into a pond, so we could have goldfish, but my mom decided to plant a tree in it instead
We don't really need a swimming pool, do we? |
