Congrats SeaWorld!!

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but I figured I'd share this video made by the Georgia Aquarium. They have also had sea dragons born recently.

Yeah, that would surely be a job I bet we all would enjoy I'm 17 and have intentions on going into marine biology, but am still unsure.

Again, I don't mean to hijack this thread, but here's some more images by the Monterey Bay Aquarium, who have ALSO had baby weedies born recently! These are must-see!! http://montereybayaquarium.tumblr.co...-the-aquariums


I have images from a "VIP Private behind the scenes tour" I took at the Georgia Aquarium when I went a few weeks ago. I'm amazed by how similar all of their monster aquariums are so similar to our much larger ones. I will eventually get them posted.

Except you could drown someone in their skimmer collection cups...

My wife and did the behind the scenes tour and rescued a fairy wrasse that had jumped onto a drypart of their lagoon.

Yes you can.

The lagoon is something else. I was amazed that they had so much stuff off exhibit. I do think the fish have holes so they can swim back and forth into the main tank, but their giant clams can't (haha). I was fascinated when I noticed that most of their achillies tangs hung out back there.
