I couldn't imagine having a wife interested enough to share half the responsibilities with. That would be amazing.

my wife and I are technically both marine biologists. We both got our BSc in marine bio... I was a fourth year and was her TA when she was in her second year. We both went to work for a start up marine aquarium fish aquaculture business in Florida.

But she didn't grow up working in a LFS like I did... so she's not so much into the aquariums.

I've moved on to join the dark side... went back to get an MBA and she got her MSc in molecular bio. She went on to do "real science" (oooo.... says I). She's been working on genetics of diseases from cancer proteins to diabetes.

I'm now just a corporate peon who used to know quite a bit about fish. No, she doesn't have a Canreef account and wonders what I'm doing on here all the time... and gives me a hard time every time a fish dies and I buy another one.

Not only does my gf tolerate it, she has a tank of her own and is on canreef as well. But it can cause problems from time to time over who gets what :mrgreen:

Good
 
Good to see some peoples gf/wife likes it because mine wants the tank gone and doesn't want to hear one word about fish in anyway. I detect jealousy
