Let's all get it off our chests of what irritates the other half about our great fishkeeping hobby. ::thumb::

So as an example, this was part of @Sixo post about buying air pumps. :grin:

In my case, nothing I mean nothing phases my wife Helen, she's quite boring really. :dodgy2: ...Love her to bits though! :$

Poor Helen! Imagine being called boring?! She has to be “boring” to counteract everything you get up to, although boring should be replaced by “responsible adult” in this case :D
My OH just gets a bit wound up if i wont shut up (and thats hard work!) about fish/tanks/forum :D
Otherwise she is very much on board with what i do with the tanks, and I believe it was her idea to get a tank so i could “show” her how to keep fish. Very shortly after I discovered i knew next to nothing aside from they live in water ROFL

Her indoors is in a state of constant irritation that nothing is good enough or big enough for me, I buy a new fish or tank and instead of being content, I'm planning another bigger or better one! She thinks I have some sort of obsessive compulsive disorder. I'm sure I haven't, I just want more stuff, bigger stuff
