She got pissed but I wouldn't back down. I told her it's going to happen, get used to it! She gets a bigger house, I get a monster tank! That's that!
Now thats the man of the house.
Now go to sleep before the mrs catches you surfing late again .
j/k
Ive 'cheated' on my hubby w/ fish and tanks many times in many ways(sorry no wife or gf -not only guys have this problem) -usually I would just buy the tanks/fish (or have them shipped ) and bring them in before he got home (managed to hide a 6'X2; tank under a blanket in a spare room for a long time). I had some giant danio dithers that somehow turned into a 22" silver arowana
But Ill admit Ive lied -hes come home early on days Im getting a box fed-exed and I'll be like .."oh someone from the internet just sent me these,i dont know why" . My usual tactic is to say "it only cost like $5.00"(yeah right ..5 X 10) to this day my husband has no idea I actually spent $480 on a fish one time.But when I decided to build a 360g tank in our living room had to swear I would get rid of some smaller ones ,which one of these days Ill do (when i get my 500g
that is ).I figure what the heck ,i work! and my hobby is way less expensive then his- hot rods and motorcycles
