Yep. My options are tell her or be in trouble... I might have told her I was done for a while after Black Friday. In my defense I've only spent $50 on the tank since then.

“Honey I’m going out the lfs to get a fish!‘ Ok Hon’ ….a 7 dollar fish?’ Yes dear a 7 dollar fish”. :grinning-squinting-face:

That was LAST YEAR.

Getting home later. "No, there was a 'D'... I know I said the 'D'. Had to be your selective hearing. Sorry, no returns."

No, that started January first... I tried the last year though.... :winking-face-with-tongue: The look.

Totally gonna pull a @Projects with Sam . Problem - we have a shared account and she gets purchase alerts.

She did mention that I get paid on Thursday so I might take that as permission?

This right here.

"Well, you said I get paid on Thrusday, so took that as a yes."

Ask for forgiveness later.

At this point I don't know that there's any forgiveness, just lesser grudge later? :grinning-squinting-face:

All this saltwater buying has really messed with my concept of a "cheap" fish. I was looking at Bettas the other day and thought $20, that's not bad.

Think she'd notice another fish in qt?

She did ask when I'm going to set up another QT so that sounds like more permission so the Thursday payday thing might have actually been legit permission. :thinking-face:

Dooooood! How long have you been married? Let me explain; her asking about setting up another QT had nothing to do with you actually setting up another QT. It’s her strategizing. They always play the long game.

Also, the new lights have been up for 5 hours. Long term review, I'm in serious danger of being happy with the tank!

Kessil are nice for photographing things, as the blue still makes things pop, but tuned right, the white makes a phone able to take pics.

Or it might be a preparation to separate money. Maybe "rescue" the fish.

There were many doozies on here today but this one had me totally cracking up. :D

My wife gets those too. I tell her how much I spent on something and she says,” I know. It tattled on you”.

21 years. Just a little background: I have a 125 gallon tank because she said the 75 was too full which I had because she said the 5 gallon is too big. She's fairly supportive it's just an expensive hobby and we're a single income family. She tries to keep me from spending the mortgage as much as possible. She doesn't mind me having fish tanks.

Congrats on 21 years! It’s not a very common thing anymore. My parents went 66 years. They’d still be married but my dad had to go and die. We teased my mom by telling her that he didn’t ask if it was ok for him to die.

Thanks for the background!
