Aquariums and Audio Equipment

First of all, marine (salt water) fish sink to the bottom of the tank when they die.

I had a 200 gallan marine tank (using wet/dry and fluidized bed filters) in my listening room. One day while I was at work and on my lunch break their was a power failure at home. Some sand got into the ball valve (prevents all the water from rushing out the returns in the bottom of the tank) and it stuck open. My wife did not know to turn the cut-off valve off (with huge red handle labeled "turn in case of emergency") and by the time she got through to me 150 gallons of salt water was soaking into the rug and wicking up into the custom bubinga speaker stands and the drywall. Shorted out the electric in the walls and in the room (good thing for surge suppressors) By the time I got home the speaker stands and bottom of the audio cabinet were ruined. Spent about 6-8 hours vacuaming up the water with a shop vac. When we moved about 6 months later I gave away the fish, tank, and all the filtration.

Bottom Line - Aquariums and audio don't mix.

Is there any audiophile grade acquarium pumps out there with low noise? I believe that Audiogon should designate a separate section for audiophile grade miscelaneous items. In fact there are more things to be designed "audiophile grade" which means more ways to establish business for example Dog or cat that is trained or even breaded not to touch or scratch an audio/video equipment:^).

Prpixel - What a nightmare! Wet/dry scares the bejesus out of me. The mere thought of 150 gallons of stinky, potentially salty, aquarium water on my hard wood floors, soaking into my Revel Studios, and leaking down into my bedroom horrifies me.

I used to have a 55g planted amazon tank w/ lights, CO2, etc. Its now sitting in my storage area, empty after I moved. I'm trying to build up the gumption to get back into aquaria, but the investment in home audio equipment necessitates that I figure out a way to make the two work together. From the comments above, it appears that nothing can be done...Aquarists either live with the risk and noise floor, or live without audio equipment.
