Re: swimming in my aquarium

That was cute! You could make a lot of money if you could turn that concept into a screen play and sell it to Disney! It could be similar to "The Chronicle's of Narnia", but instead of accessing the secret world through a stinky, musty closet, you could access the secret underwater world of Zoanthia through your tank!

Re: swimming in my aquarium

This is funny....because I recently dreamed that I found a way to shrink myself down to a 1:50 scale just to go scuba dive in my tank.

My Coral Banded Shrimp insisted that I was dinner so I was forced to wake up.

Re: swimming in my aquarium

There actually is an opportunity to (scuba) dive in several aquariums, you know. For example, a year ago or so, I dived in the 6.5 million gallon aquarium at Disney's Epcot Center for nearly an hour. Pretty cool. Plus, I found out later that the National Aquarium at Baltimore occasionally allows one of the local dive shops access to one of their big tanks as part of a PADI course that they run. Pretty neat, huh?
