    Sounds typical of a "zoo".

      8O  this is off topic, but I don't like the word "retarded".  By definition, that word does not really apply.

          he was using it in a hyperbolic (is that a word?) way.  while I agree this can be offensive, i think so many people use it in the way its not intended, that they dont really mean any harm. IE: for many years you will hear kids call each other "gay" but they are not referring to their sexuality, but a term used as "you are stupid" etc etc etc

            I agree....the word was not used in terms of their mental state but the fact that they are ignorant to the conditions of the fish....


            I also think to cram that much fish in the tank the filtration/sump has to be a good sized body of water.

              I think that zoo keeper must really know his stuff or he has to replace a lot of fish every monday.
              I would guess youre looking into the end of a verry deep tank and all the fish think it's feeding time.
              'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
              He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

                Just a little overstocked.  Reminds me of the picture from some waterpark in asia were the wave pool is so over crowded you cant even see water.
