I was playing around with my daughter today and managed to get this pic.

I ps'd the fish in there..

That is a cool photo with your daughter and the damsel looking as though they are staring each other down.

Thanks. Having a reef has been the best thing for her. Whenever she throws a tantrum we just hold her up to it and she instantly calms down.

Sweet, now I have ammo for the misses. No more complaining about my expensive hobby!!

Very cute pic, I actually got one very similar when my son was about the same age as your daughter.

 

[pepper'scove]

Lol, i almost forgot, I like the picture too! I just got all wrapped up with the idea that I might be able to persuade the misses of the future good of my hobby. Glad the little one likes the tank!

That's awesome skins! Same type of fish.

Peppers cove, I am sure to remind my wife of that fact as much as possible!

Great pic! I have a 7 mo old and she loves the tank too. Any time she gets fuzzy and moms buzy the tank is always an easy and quick remedy. Its weird all the fish will come right up to the glass, even the gobys that hide all day come a bit out to see her.

Failproof trick! Thats why my wife setup a nano in her room. My daughter can look into it while shes on the changing table.

Wow that's scary. We will be enforcing a strict no touching the glass policy.

No way man. You just have to lay down the law so this doesnt happen:

Well laying down the law really lays in the hands of the parents - My Aunt and Uncle already think i am nuts with my tank and pool table!

Sort of. Your house, your rules. But getting into family dynamics is a whole other can of worms.
