    Loud music and fish?

    Thanks for taking the time to replie to a goofy question. I very rarely get to play my music loud anyway due to I live in a apartment. Do fish here sounds or do they feel the vibration? Reminds me of a 80's song;)

    Loud music and fish?

    This may be a stupid question, but I was wondering if loud music bothered fish. I dont mean concert loud, I sometimes like to turn up a good tune, just wondering if that would bother my fish being in the same room, doesnt seem like it. I am suprised I actully posted this post:(
