It doesn't bother her so much when its one of the 10 gallons that sit on top of the night stands beside the bed. But she really "loves" it when its the 30 gallon that sit on the head board over the top of the bed.

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	Ok, it happened last night, and I know it's not the first time for me...I woke up in the middle of the night, and after a couple of minutes it dawned on me what was wrong...One of my aerators (sp?) was "off balance" and not making "the right sound". So the question is...am I the only one who can tell when something if off, even when asleep? "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom." Thomas Carlyle

divertran Fish Addict Posts: 784 Kudos: 469 Votes: 165 Registered: 14-Nov-2004	OK, I once slept through a T-72 tank almost (within six inches) running over my head. I didn't know a thing about it till about an hour after I woke up and met the ground guide who saved my life. but my wife always complains that its too loud when one of the air pumps is vibrating against a wall or something.

But walking in the house, even before checking the microwave clock, I can tell if one of the filters has stopped....of course it helps that the pond is set up to really waterfall . ^_^ Current [link=Contest Rules]http://www.fishprofiles.com/files/forums/Aquascaping/44382.html?200412022138" style="COLOR: #EB4288[/link][/font]
