well, I certainly don't think going from a corner of the living room to getting an entire fish room /stufy constitutes crossing 'the limit'.
she loves my fish and my hobby, she just doesn't like that it dominates a good portion of my life. I can understand that, and once the tank is finished and running, I think she will love it even more.

That's how I did it. Now when we go to the fish store I have to tell her "you don't have the lights for that" or "that will fight with....." or "how many fish are you going to try to fit in that tank?"Originally Posted by cpreefguy
My GF was against me spending my money of SW tanks at first, until I bought her a 10g of her own and now she is in to it
But sometimes I get lucky and she has to have it so it goes in "my" tank :P

Just tell your wife there are two things you are obssesed with and you are willing to give one of them up for her because you love her soooo much. Then let her pick which one you should give up.

My girlfriend is pretty cool about my hobbies, she doesn't mind my 380 gallon aquarium, heck she even went with me to Colorado to pick up the 720 and she didn't mind paintball until she found out that I've spent over $4,000 dollars in paintball guns and equipment then she did get a little upset, but I can't blame her as much as I hate to admit it she does have a point.
4 grand? wow. i spent 4 grand on my ar suping it up, but not on paintball!)

Mine complained when I bought her a 135, so I bought her a 100, and then sold both and bought her a 200 and then a 75 for my office, and then a 29, and then a 155. I have no idea why she gets mad at me. I guess she is not going to be happy until she gets me to buy her a new 240? She did tell me when I die she will save money on a casket, because she is going to bury me in my 200.

Well think of it this way, which is easier to drag to the curb? About a ton of water? or your wife?
