I love my wife but dang woman

So after my appt yesterday I stopped at petsmart looking for a glass cover that would work with my new compact fourecents. I was also looking for a 15 gallon tank so we could move her betta's into a slightly bigger tank and keep all 3 divided(we have fem's together right now). Couldnt find a 15 so I suggested to her when I got home that she get a 20 gallon long. That we she could keep the original 3 all divided and add a 4th. I had it all planned out she get's the tank and rock and I would order the filter, light/hood, and heater for it. Well she went and bought the tank and rock with no prob but my text to her to wait on the betta wasnt in time So she comes home at ~530pm on what is effectively my sunday night(I work 10's fri-mon) and shows me her new betta and I tell her we rent ready for that yet. Back to the store she goes for new heater and filter(which would havebeen cheaper online). Well we got the 10 cleaned out and the 20 setup, low and behold we dont have the right amount of dividers Now we have 2 males 1 on each end and 2 fem's in the middle and no lighting with a peice of veniered particle board covering the tank until her hood gets here and I now have to convince her it's a good idea to move the dividers around and seperate the fem's. Needless to say we had quite the evening while trying to feed dogs and then us as well LOL. The Betta's are all doing well in thier new home so far although I'm a bit concerned about dominance with the 2 fem's, thinking we should add a 3rd fem instead and keep them together as now.

LOL... and I got mad at my husband for buying 2 cichlids today... I have a kenyi holding today and we have to go hunt down a tank for her tomm, and while on the ambulance working stoped by the fishstore picking up supplies for me bought 2 cichlids that "he just couldn't live w/o" They are too small to go in my big tank right now, so I have to find somewhere to put them, and we have to pick them up tomm, along w/ our massive tank hunt for a holding tank for the holding female...
I told him we will have PLENTY cichlids in about 2 weeks..... no.. these were cherry red color... specials...

Then, the fish are supose to be "my fish" and its always thrown up to me about how they are for me, etc... but he goes in these stores and cannot walk out w/o a fish. I end up w/ the end results of his impulse buys...

I know what you are talking about!!

Pics should come tomorrow, today she is getting the 3rd divider and moving the tank around to accomodate the new living arrangements. It was easy to finally convince her to seperate the girls since Rosey now has a partially torn up tail fin and is spending a lot of time hiding from Violet.
