I say let's go for it aslong as tank and stand look all pretty and match my kitchen I'm good with anything. Bigger means more pretty fish for me too!

Well my wife is so so happy with my relatively new saltwater hobby (rsm 250)! U see I was heavy into keeping & breeding reptiles (mostly snakes) for most of my life including our 8 yrs of marriage so when I finally decided to compromise & switch to this saltwater world she has been very excited that the snake collection has been sold. I have even told her actual prices of livestock & dry goods etc & she doesn't complain at all lol!
Turns out, the Joking commend about taking down the aquariums wasnt joking. My lovely mrs has decided, now is the time to put down new carpet, with MY quarterly bonus, and i have to take down MY tanks to make room for HER new carpet. AND GOD HELP me if i get any SW on her NEW CARPET, that my bonus is paying for. She told me i have some time, but come spring she wants to clear out the living room(where both of my tanks are) and put down new carpet. I Practically screamed at her that if i was going to take em down, i was going to sell em, and save for a bigger tank...she smirked at me(she had a near death experience and didnt even know it!) so long as i remove the tanks long enough to lay down carpet. ARRRG.
Anyone wana buy a Used 92g Bowfron Glass Corner tank, or 65g brick tank.....or a wife(i promise the ducktape marks will come off, just scrub hard)

Didn't sound like she "made" him do it. He is choosing to do it.

Why don’t you persuade her to put down wooden flooring, this way you can lay the flooring round the tanks?

My wife is demanding that I do new hardwood floors in the back half of the house (where the 125 sits of course) or we move to a new house. The couch is actually pretty comfortable.

By the sounds of it you better get what you want first.
Oh i'll settle for 2nd. Better that than "oh i got what i wanted, but we really dont have money right now for anything else. We need to save up some more" shortly followed by "now that thats done, what i wana do next is"....and the fight starts
My wife is really not that bad, but she's used to me not spending much money on myself. So when i do, it kinda freaks her out.

Man, I'm going to have to send my wife flowers. She threw a fit last night when I wanted to buy the cheaper 4 bulb light instead of the 6.
