I know I do... Did you buy a new pump? None I just replumbed it... And that's not a new coral I moved it from the back...

Thats a good way to go and is the same as us. My wife (KissMyWrasse) loves the aquarium as myself and one of our kids has asthma....so no doggies which she would love to have. So we have......well fish and other marine critters!

Yeah, I used to sneek stuff all the time. After many suck up episodes after she notices I decided to bring her to local fs with me. Once there it is me telling her that we shouldnt get this or that just yet, that we have to take it slow and buy only a few things at once, "but its sooo pretty".

She still goes on about how expensive it is. It just urks me that they think nothing of spending money on other stuff (such as sented candles at $20 each that just go up in flame) and its me that has an expensive hobby....
Love you honey

I've lost track of how many times she's asked if I'm hiding another tube of epoxy in my pocket.

Like Laurie(fishoholic) said.....we dont have to sneak stuff......she is usually the one saying "go for it hun"......might be really dangerous to our bank accounts if we ever move in together......

now the ex on the other hand was a different story.......I would get the hairy eyeball every now and then and comments like "where did that come from".....and I would be like, "what?" she would say " that coral/fish/clam!".....I would say...."um.......I dont know ..........it must have hitchhiked in on something
