Copied this off the rifle prayer from full metal jacket and reworded and shortened it. Just for some of us bored reefers. Call it the Reef Creed[1]
"This is my reef tank. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My reef is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My reef, without me, is useless. Without my reef, I am useless. I must be true to my reef. I must protect my reef from anything that tries to harm it. I must control it before it controls me. I will...My reef and I know that what counts in this reef is not the fish we buy, or the corals we keep. We know that its the water quality that counts. We will treat it human. My reef is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its lights and its equipment. I will keep my reef clean and levels steady, as I research and study. We will become part of each other. We will...Before God, I swear this creed. My reef and I are the defenders of my ocean. We are the masters of our reef."
