    The music you use in all of your videos is great. Makes me want to stab a box full of puppies. =] Keep up the good work.

    My kids love my aquariums and of course, call the Clownfish Nemo, but my wife couldn't care less about my hobby! Thank god she lets me do what I want though! Whenever I ask her if she could feed the fish while I'm at work, it's like I've just asked her to clean out and strip down the entire tank! Mind you, every time we go on vacation, we go to the location's local aquariums too and she enjoys herself!
