at first my wife would say omg another fish. Now sometimes when i get home i find her sitting next to the tank and saying ohhh look i found a new polyp thats my favorite now. lol she sounds like me when i started this hobby hehe. The other day she came home with a Flower pot about 7 x 7
I guess it worked and she is more supportive now than 1 yr ago. I guess we just have to educate out significant other and show them the way of the reef. I think i won my wife over when i took her snorkeling in a real reef in the Philippines and Hawaii hehe

"Better to spend time and money on this then on beer and cheap woman......"

this is my wifes philosophy. i heard her talking with her mom the other day and must have been asked "so, how do you feel about having a big tank like that". her response was, "actually, i had kind of expected something bigger knowing him"...........i'm drawing up the plans to the next house i'm going to build right now........she keeps asking "what's that room for"........hehehehehe i've always wanted a tank that has 3 digits when describing how many gallons it has!
