TODAY'S TANK TALK PROMPT: Tell us about your favorite public aquarium exhibit.
Since it's the one I go to most, I'll say the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach Ca., but choosing just one exhibit is like choosing your favorite child. There's just so much to chose from. From tropical waters,

One of my favorite public aquarium exhibits here in NY Aquarium is the tunnel exhibits. Stepping into the tunnel, I feel like I'm in the bottom of the sea.

BONUS TANK TALK PROMPT: Let's talk about your favorite tank inhabitants! Share a picture of your best tank buddy (fish or invert) or your favorite coral and tell us why they make your reef tank special.

No tank yet, but I imagine one of my favorites I'll have when the tank arrives will be greenstar polyps. I just like how bright green they are in color and the flow it has.

TODAY'S TANK TALK PROMPT: Tell us about your favorite public aquarium exhibit. What did you learn from seeing it?
Today's prompt:
I like the Octopus 4D film exhibit at the National Aquarium in Baltimore. I learned that 4D means you get sprayed with water...

My tank is small but mighty - my only challenge is that it often has dried shrimp on the screen! Would love a custom lid with a feeding port.

Also - I don’t have many local reefing friends to care for the tank if I’m gone for a day or two. Would love an auto feeder so I don’t have to impose on the neighbors anymore

I took my little boys (4&6) to Atlanta last year for a family wedding - this aquarium BLEW THEIR MIND!

Our trip to the Georgia Aquarium is actually why we bought them a reef tank for Christmas. Almost a full year in and we’re already looking to upgrade our 15 gallon cube. We’re officially reefaholics!

Favorite public aquarium

That’s the Baltimore National aquarium. Went there as a kid and recently took my family and cousins when they were in town. It’s a great setting and multiple levels with all types of animals on display that are welll taken care of. A lot of information and helpful staff. When Baltimore was really bad the Aquarium was the only bright spot. It was the anchor to make downtown Baltimore a better city.

I love the Baltimore Aquarium. I have dove in the Ray Tray and Coral Reef tanks many times. Our Wedding reception was held in the Mott room.

Happy Thanksgiving! I'll be brand agnostic here, but I am thankful for the automation provided by controllers.

My wife and I wanted to do our wedding there, too; but, we had too many people. :crying-face:
