This was funny so lets start out own..

you might be a reefneck if:

1. you run into the house with no shirt on, wet up to the armpits, yelling "I GOT IT!, I GOT IT!"

2. You show up at the LFS the SAME time as your Buddy and your both wearing the same Reefing T-Shirt..... and you didn't even call each other first!
3. When the LFS owner says, " I will let you know when you run out of credit"

4. when you start eyeballing what furniture you can sell to buy new equipment for your tank.

5. When you cut a hole in your roof cause Metal Halides " just aren't enough"

I better stop there.. but lets hear it!
