  • awesome tank at my new job

    My first day on my new job today and the best feature is this huge tank they have full of beautiful cichlids. To be honest, I'd never paid much attention to cichlids and they didn't catch my interest. I think that's changed. There were a couple of parrots (not sure what I think of those yet) and some others I'm not sure about. It's a beautiful tank. It's disappointing to me that the plants are fake, but they're of enough quality that if you don't pay them much attention (and the fish are certainly beautiful enough to keep your eyes locked), you could be forgiven for thinking them real, if a little too perfect.

    Sadly, no one nearby knew a damned thing about it, so I'm going to ask when their fish guy/gal comes in for maintenance and talk to her/him about it when s/he's there. I wonder if I could convince my bosses to let me spend a little time before or after work to get a little experience with a tank of that size and those kinds of fish (with, of course, the agreement of whoever maintains it).

    I'll try to get some pictures and video when I can.
    Trogdor was a man. Or maybe he was a dragon man. Or maybe he was just a dragon. But he was still TROGDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!

    You know, fish are great. I love my fish. But what I really want is a monkey.

      That sounds vaguely dirty and while I like that, it went completely over my head. :P

        Don't pick up your Perciformes where you pick up your Paycheck!

            I actually asked today and found out it was Aquarium World.

            My employer is HostGator on 290, so I guess it makes sense.

                    Wow. Are you sure? If so, that really sucks.

                    It's not everyone there, is it?
