Out of the 10 at last

[jeff]

I stopped over at my mom and dads house today to feed everything beacuse they are gone for the weekend, and I kinda was sneaky and did something I may get in trouble for... I got a bigger tank for the axies!
I finally picked up a 20 gallon long. My axies grew so big so fast I think they were about ready to jump out of that 10. This 20 long is perfect for axies, I even have it about 2/3 full and it looks really nice, with the white sand.

I know that I should have asked frist, but my new thoery on the ampbians is do it first, and then ask later. Such as "oh yeah, I bought a much bigger tank and moved them into it, but look how nice it looks and they look so happy"
Usually if I do things this way and have the end product all ready and on display, then people are much less grumbly, I know if I would have said "hey, how about I go buy a bigger tank and we move this dresser over there" then a huge debate would have insued. I find the "axi first, questions later" method is the best way to make all parties happy. Anyone do this to thier signifcant others/roomates/family?

That's certainly what happened here. The only reason we ended up with axies in the house is because my son bought them despite my telling him not to. I couldn't very well say 'take them back'!! And now I adore them and I'm knocking myself out hatching shrimp and scattering blood worms to feed their 50 offspring!

And when I want to add something or do something a little different in my son's axie tank I do it while he's out or away for the weekend... he always likes it ... in the end. So sometimes the best interests of the axies mean 'act first then ask'!
