You know your a natural born fish keeper when the first time your little girl pleads for a fish tank, you get her a 10gal for her birthday, then three months later you get "her" a 75gal.

You know you are a fish keeper when you call your local zoo aquarium and ask the curator what to feed your newly hatched baby octopus and he asks if he can come to your house and see them.

You know you are a fish keeper when you have so many tanks that you apply for a job as the keeper of the fort worth zoo aquarium marine section and you get the job even though they don't know anything about you other than what you tell them, no job experience, no references to give them, just what you know from your own personal experience as an avid hobbyist.

You know you are a fishkeeper when you try to explain to a four year old that just because Elmo has Dorothy in a bowl, that doesn't mean it's a good idea.

You know you're a fishkeeper when you think of the weight of the filing cabinets at work in terms of tank size..... "this cabinet weighs about the same as a 40 gallon"

YKYAFKW you become very concerned about the size and composition of the beams holding the second floor up and the location of the load bearing walls they're on, and you don't own a waterbed.
