Ask her if there's something you can do for her, and in exchange you get a new XYZ
Her hair and nails can’t be redone every week unfortunately she gets a style for both and sticks with it for about a month to two and unfortunately she doesn’t have a hobby

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask permission....just saying :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Trade in frags for credit. Helps offset costs.
Another viable option but my tank is only a little over a year old and I waited some time to add corals so they’re only recently taking off not enough to frag though but this is my second tank since i upgraded to my new system since the 1st one I felt was to small for what I had envision after seeing some corals I didn’t hear about when I set up the 1st tank so I wasted a good 2-3 months at 1st

Just say it benefits you both. She gets free, relaxing entertainment by looking at the tank. You could also tell her "If I buy this coral, you can go buy x ).

We should start a standalone thread of "reasoning" or reasonable excuses to buy more things, for everyone's reference :)

I also like the strategy of giving the wife some wine... and then more wine... and then ask her to help me pick corals
