<< I have discovered the warning signs of the 'get more fish, more tanks'
 disease that I am suffering from. Check yourself for these warning signs:
 1 - You have just put in another pump, and nearly all the sponge filters are
 now bubbling enough to work.
 2 - You just put in your last sponge filter in a tank.
 3 - You just found an empty tank , or,  you just found another sponge filter
 and don't have a tank to put it in.
 4 - Absolutely any kind of egg just hatched.
 5 - You received a F&E listing
 6 - The week has a Saturday in it.
 Unfortunately, while I have discovered the warning signs, no cure >>


Below a few additions to what I'm glad to know is now being described as a 
"clinical condition." I was beginning to believe those who said I have a 
"sick" affinity for water creatures!

7 - While walking through the local discount store you feel strangely 
attracted to the plastic box section.
8 - Clear glass/plastic containers are considered as fish houses rather than 
vases, pretzel barrels, or olive jugs.
9 - The word "no" no longer applies to orhan/surplus fish from friends.
