The Big League


For any Aquarist, Fishkeeper, Aquascaper hobbyists out there, I would definitely recommend a quick trip to your local aquarium. I took the family to the National Aquarium in D.C. the other day and got good education  on how to really make your aquarium "pop".

The Aquarium was basically a big circle, in which half of the circle was marine tanks, and the other half was brackish and freshwater tanks. Each tank represented an area of the world, whether it be the great barrier reef, or Assateague Island, Virginia. It was a really terrific sight and gave me a lot of good ideas for the tank and how to eventually design it.

Several of the exhibits were based around the ecosystems around boat and plane wrecks, showing that nature has a way of making use of everything and everyone.

 Here is a quick slideshow from the National Aquarium and sorry about the quality of the photo's:
