    I have had a virtually empty 90g sitting in our main room for several months now. It went from a beautiful thriving reef tank to an “eye sore” after catastrophic hardware failure killed off the tank while we were on vacation.

    Yesterday my wife said she wanted to talk about the fish tank, and I was expecting the obvious question from her: “When are you going to get rid of this thing” - or something along those lines…

    Much to my surprise, the question she asked was: “When are you going to start growing corals again??” - Enough said ;D

    I am now in the process of starting over, thinking about all of the things I would have liked to have done with this tank, and making it even better than the first go-around. Guess I will be broke again for the next six months ::)

    Had a similiar experience. Wife and I went to the mall so she could go clothes shopping and while there she said "Do you want to go to the petstore?" they specialize in SW and corals and I responded "No, I'll just find something I'' fall in love with and I don't have any money right now." Next thing I know she's got her credit card and says I can buy anything under $100! Indeed, a great marriage.

    Maybe she got a raise she didn't mention or maybe it's like roses for a woman when we screw up :rofl:

    HA HA +1 everytime my wife overspends on something she tries to buy me off with letting me pick out something for the tank.
