    I hear ya!!(get it?lol!!)no the boom boxes are not hooked up(allthough they do rock)we have smaller high output bookshelf speakers on the entertainment center,and there all the thump we need,the fish went crazy and the corals closed up when i had the bigguns hooked up(and they were on the other side of the room at the time!!)

    Ah, I see. Congrats on the new baby. Do you know what you're having yet? Man, $12.99/lb is ridiculous.

    Hey, they may be small time but they have to start somewhere. The one I go to locally just got a 10gal at the beginning of the summer. That's the extent of their saltwater collection, but they are slowly working on increasing. The other LFS near my hometown has about 8 tanks and are just now starting to try clams.
