Same here can’t spend a dollar without her knowing
My husband handles our finances so he knows how much everything cost. He'll sometimes ask me to put a hold on my spending but he's been great really at letting me get the things that I really need like the lights.
At most there were a few of the 'it's better to ask forgiveness than permission' purchases.

My stranger half actually spends more on my tank than I do.
So suddenly I have euphyllia and goniopora. because 'The clownfish might want a home'...
Meanwhile the clownfish chill out next to the clamp for the lights like 'I got a home'...

It was her idea to get a larger tank than the fluval 13.5 I started with. i said my ex made me cheap out on everything back in the early 2000’s and struggled the entire time and if we were going to do it I wanted it done right. Since then she doesn’t say anything about equipment purchases and 95% of livestock and coral she has picked out anyway and knows how much it costs before we buy it. Heck, sometimes she picks out stuff I would even be hesitant to spend so much on but she never tells me I can’t buy anything including car parts for my WRX!

Not a single thing. If you are lying or hiding things from your partner, you're doing it wrong. My wife is my best friend. She has her passions, and I have mine. We set our monthly play money budgets and adhere to them (mostly).

Crazy how all of our significant others hacked @Gumbies R Us account, just so they could post this fake thread and trick us into confessing or transgressions!!!

I don't hide the tank purchases...gun purchases are a different story
I can't hide those from her either, she always wants to go try them out as soon as I finish building them.I don't hide the tank purchases...gun purchases are a different story
that's a good woman there!
A dozen years ago I Had a 90 gallon with a slotted canopy. Put my 2 day old 4 i phone on it. Went to lift canopy and in it went. Had to run out and pay cash for a replacement. Didn’t want her to know I was that stupid.
I love the trope, but nothing. I'm lucky my partner is interested in the hobby (as a viewer, she doesn't want to be involved)... I think having to hide purchases from your SO is a bad sign, but to each their own.
