You know you've become "That Fish Person" when....

[majesticstorm]

When you keep thinking about what you should do/buy to keep your betta entertained.

When you go to Petco for a ten dollar ten gal for a spawn you might do over the summer and leave with $25 worth of plants for a shy fish.

You know you are that fish person when you've declared snails and algae public enemies 1 and 2 respectively. -_-

When your mom tunes you out when you are talking about fish and then proceeds to tell you that she is sick of hearing about your fish tanks.

Happens to me daily. Once every month dad might ask "You're fish still alive?" and I start talking about all three (well as of last week, four) and he'll be like "That was a yes or a no..." Oi

When you work for 6 vets and you KNOW your fish have just as much personality as the animals you see daily.

[Skyewillow]

When your brain has a "species catalog" that kicks into effect while watching TV.

"That's not a goldfish, that's a barb, and that fishbowl is way to small for either of those species."

"Sprout channel and Elmo's World need bigger accommodations for their goldfish, it's teaching bad husbandry to see them in bowls."

And when your friend's son asks a question about bettas, and you type out a huge paragraph detailing that the tanks marketed for bettas are too small, you have to house males and females separately when not breeding, and you have to have a fry growout tank, and jars to separate the fry.... yada yada.... but end with "Despite all of the work that goes into them, their personality can't be beat!"

When you rearrange tanks for fun and spend hours watching your fish explore the new layout.

When you are so overwhelmed by the cuteness of your betta swimming into your cupped hand for the first time. (Did this when I was messing with the tank yesterday, it's so adorable how much Shosta trusted me *squee*)

When you get mad at the writers of Phineas and Ferb while watching it with your little cousins because the creators of the show obviously are setting a terrible example of fish-keeping for children.
