A little background so you know where I'm coming from... 2 months ago, I got back into Aquaria due to inheriting a tank with bigger dreams already forming. Just about everyone I talk to lately, I eventually get around to these fish (whatever I'm into at a particular point in life, I'm ALL about it). I'd say while my girlfriend likes fish, she probably wouldn't own her own.
Her and I go out to eat last night and while I'm mentioning my temp problem thing (another post) midway through dinner, she says "Let's go to Petco after this! I wanna look at the fish". Heart stops. She doesn't know that I've been going to Petco or Petsmart like every other day already, so it was like heaven opening up above our table. I'm like "Heck yeah let's go"! So random, but it was one of those random things you wish someone would say or do, and then they actually do it without hint. Anyway, long story short... we looked over the whole fish department... I even showed her the food aisle just cuz I think its AWESOME! We looked at NEW TANKS and she kept pointing to a 45 and 55 gallon tank (they were the biggest ones they had out). Basically, I think I have my gf on board for some future aquarium plans. She just kept saying she didn't like the standard rectangular design. I had pointed out a 45 gallon square tank and told her how I envisioned it in an apartment ;p
I wonder what she would have said if they had a 100 gallon tank to look at?

Good luck! My husband didn't "get" the fish thing for a while, but he's pretty on board now.
