im a bit embarrassed as usually dad jokes are groaningly obvious but I don't get this at all.

~~Me too, thank you for asking~~

Edit: I don't like how that sentence reads. I could not get the joke, so thank you for asking so I did not have to

after the explanation and reading it again im not as embarrased. indoor is one of those strange ones that does not read like you think even though it does. thinking an inn door and indoor they still seem really different. its sorta hard even knowing to read it as inn door fins.

I read it aloud to my partner and it worked well. Reading it in my head not so much

It took me a few passes too.

I had to Google what the hell endorphins was lol

There's a star wars joke about Endor-fins in there somewhere.

Edit: or even Endor-Finns if you're willing to acknowledge the existence of the new films.

I just tried to do a search for any meme like this, and surprisingly "Endorfins" is a brand of fins for surfboards.

Having enough money to keep a tropical aquarium running is very relaxing.

Yeah right I barely spend Anything on mine. Initial set up in the other hand . ...

I will say though saltwater tropicals are intensive as hell to keep

It's definitely a fair bit of effort and responsibility to keep this many fish in this size of tank, so it pretty much needs to be a labor of love. Cichlid tanks like the one in the photo might be a little less work / stress compared to a typical saltwater tank of similar size, but they can still be a lot of work.

I wouldn't want to take on the responsibility of upkeep on this tank, but I am certain if I had something like this in a nice spot where I could stop and lounge for a bit, watching the fish do their thing, in that moment it would be quite calming.

Same principle with captive birds as pets. The sounds of a happy, healthy aviary can be so soothing (with the right birds of course). However, birds are a lot of work. And the cost of caring for them, I mean, just wait until you see the bill.

This is one of the more clever and original dad jokes I’ve seen in a very long time.
