My girlfriend now has her own tanks....only guppies though. Shes pretty good with the hobby just doesn't like how much I talk about my Pbass LOL. Or how frequently I have my hands in one of my tanks.

I couldn't deal with that if my bf had a clue about fish ( which he doesn't ) but tell's me i'm cool just because he feels sorry for me that i'm a geek freak, I would get annoyed if someone told me how to keep MY fish, in fact all my animals, he can go off with the lads to badminton or whatever he does and spend money on his car sometimes when we are at the pet shop I get him 20 quid just to get rid of the bugger, here go buy yourself something pretty from halfords. :ROFL:

once he shook i mean shook a box of crickets and the lid came of he's such a bloody clumbsy cluts i wouldn't let him breath near me doing a WC

actually i like it that im going out with someone who is crazy about like i am because if i wanna go to the fish shop for half an hour i dont need to explain why and stuff like that lol. my ex bfs were all psychos and used to think i was weird for keeping fish.

me and my partner are always arguing about our fish :D we always try to find small imperfections about our fishkeeping and then pick on each other about it. but that meant i got nice eheim heavy duty filtration from him when i needed it for my micro tank haha so im not complaining AT ALL :D
Didn't that backfire on one of the micros?

dude, you need to tell your girlfriend to quit being such a stick in the mud.
i dont care how much my boyfriend may obsess about fish or how often he's on this site because it is a hobby he enjoys very much and it brings him happiness.
i enjoy it too keeping fish is fun
 
Exactly!If your gf or bf gives you a hard time about your interests,whatever they are,they arent into YOU theyre into being in a relationship and hammering you into the role.RUN,dont walk escape while you can!
I had 6 tanks when my wife met me,she knew what she was getting into.She likes the fish just fine.

My ex used to love the fish quite a bit. My new GF is the same way loves the fish and the tanks. I think she thinks my maintenance is a bit overkill but she hasn't said anything. And as far as monster fish keepers my new GF just cracks up she thinks its funny. She doesn't know I do most of my posting at work.
I bet she wldnt like that.

Thats harsh... Well Im 15 my parents are ok with my hobby. I have alot of spare time in between my rodeos(high school rodeos bullriding all the way). So it keeps me busy. And they say i could awalys do worse things like drugs.


Ropings like picking your nose everyone wants to try it, but no one wants to see it
 
my fiancee loves my aquariums. Sometimes she thinks I'm a little crazy for them but she'll join me in the family room and watch them swim for hours on end. Now that quality family time:headbang2:headbang2:headbang2
 
My wife tells me if I bring home one more tank she's going to take a bat to all of them. She also threatens to pour clorox into my tanks when we argue. :screwy: she knows my only weakness. Although she does approve of them when company comes over, and are amused by all my fish. She really does not bother me unless we argue.

Sometimes you just have to put your foot down, and show your woman who's boss........gotta go....wife's calling :D.
