do you think of your fish at work??

I do, its gets to the point where i talk to my co-workers about them, I could imagine what the think of me but who cares,or for my lunch i check up on them,good thing my job is only 5 min away, & if i cant drop by I ask my wife to check on them for her lunch.

Too funny. I'm a stay at home mommy so I get to spend the days with my fish too.. My kiddos LOVE it..My 3 year old helped me do a water change in my 30 gallon hex the other day..lol..She stood on the step ladder and held the python in the tank while I put in conditioner....She loves them..She doesn't even want me to turn their light off when she goes to bed...(there is a tank in her room too)..She wants to watch them while she goes to sleep.

Mike19

how many tanks do you have cesh...lol, off topic but i saw a picture of a bedhead fish tank how cool lol

CHoffman

I have 6 set up..3 10 gallons a 16 gallon a 30 gallon and a 125 gallon..But I have about 5 that aren't set up..lol..We are redoing our upstairs and as soon as it's done I'm getting a fish room..So those 5 that aren't set up will be soon..plus some..lol..

What's a bedhead fish tank You've got me curious Mike.

Shaina

I'm guessing he means a fish tank installed in the headboard of the bed...I've seen a few (in pics) and they are pretty cool...hate to think what would happen if one leaked though, lol.

But yeah I tend to jot down tank ideas when I'm at work if something occurs to me...I had a notebook full of scribbled ideas, sump designs, etc., lol.

CHoffman

COOL...Not a bad idea at all..But I get your point..if it leaks that's a bad deal..also I can just imagine a fish jumping out and attacking me..lol...

Nick G

I just try and think of anything except work.

Shaina

LOL! I can just about imagine waking up to a cold slimy fish landing on my face...!

Shawnie

I set up a 46 gal hex at work
figured my obsession and addiction, might as well follow me around

hkirchen

I think about my fish all day every day! My husband thinks I am obsessed with them! Hmmmm.... Maybe I am! I am not allowed to read fish books during the hockey games because of some supersticious thing!LOL

Red1313

I think about them all the time. I've got notebook full of diagrams and ideas.
I don't like not being at home with them

pinkfloydpuffer

Of course I think about fish at work. I think about fish all the time! And I'm on Fishlore all day while at work. Hey... it's an easy job, only requires one hand...
I really want to set up a tank here, maybe for Volta. I don't think it's allowed though. But I dunno, my boss used to have SW tanks...

NirvanaandTool

I'm usually thinking about my fish and my tanks.
Mainly what to get next (new equipment, new fish, new inverts, new coral, etc etc etc). Or I am thinking about future setups and what I would like to do next as I dive further and further into MTS.
I'm always researching stuff for my tanks and looking up equipment and new fish. I'm so addicted. Haha

dcorrea

Yep, I'm in the same boat! LOL!
Only thing is I have to wait till I get out of work to see mine, which isn't until 7 p.m. My wife thinks I'm nuts, but she's the same way with her turtles, so we're both nuts! LOL! I've got my eye on this beautiful 100 gal tank and stand set up I've seen at PetSmart, I'm keeping my fingers crossed! I'm also working out a deal with my wife, if I set up a pond in our backyard for the turtles I can use whatever space I want for the new tank (whenever that happens). She's thinking about it.

Sophism

All the time, so I just turn around and look at my 36G fishtank sitting my my office

Jess

Yup all the time. : )

catfishlover123

I wonder what my corys are doing while I am at school.

Amanda

I think of stocking ideas & tanks I would like to have while I sit in my classes.

Angela_96

Yes, I do.. it keeps me sain! I wish we could get a huge tank set up in the lobby of our hospital for the patients waiting. (and me when Iam on break lol)

I tell you one thing though, when I get home from work I go to my fish to feed them and check on them before I even take the dog out.

CoryMac

all the time, for my lunch break i go home just to see them.

Dean

Way way too much. I'm to OCD.

heartsongsinger

I do it at work and at school

Jupiter

I don't post much but I read this website 3 or 4 hours a work day! If my tanks were cycled and I had fish I would be thinking about them also.

MeGustaUnaPez926

Yeah, I sit in the back in most of my classes, so i have a lot of time to read about fish and plan new ideas and fishlore. My friends think I'm nuts, especially because every one in a while we'll get a 5 minute break or something and all I want to do is go on fishlore! But thats okay, I haven't been caught yet!

SWilkins

Well I feel right at home here. I just get to work at home doing medical transcription so I am surrounded by my tanks at all times. HEE HEE. I get to take a short break or maybe a long break and go check on all the different tanks. I have them all over the house and I have lost count. My hubby has it as bad as I do so it really is fun. We have another 55g coming and I just found out he got another 29g from his brother who just did not want to deal with it. BTW PFP the 55g is going to be a puffer home. Oh I just can't wait. It is neverending and I love it. Some people think I am going to be like those little old ladies and their cats when I get old.

pinkfloydpuffer

Yay!!! How fun!!!
I already have a title for myself when I get old... "the crazy puffer lady" LOL

SWilkins

Oh yeah that name will work great!!! I will just be the crazy old lady with all the fish and dogs.

For all the people who don't understand us...they just don't know what they are missing.

BlowPhish

I look up fish profiles at work.

haedra

It's pretty hard for me not to think about my fish at work. I'm a stay at home mom.

So much like I obsess about my son's safety constantly, I obsess about the fishies' safety too.
