I went to browse around Fish Gallery yesterday. I saw quite a number of things I had never seen in the flesh before. My camera battery was dead—sorry no pictures. They had a lovely black tang for about $800. They had Electric Green Tetras, bought to you by the same people that came up with Glo-Fish derived from the White Skirt Tetra. This maybe the thing that gets me into setting up an obnoxious as possible, lurid, glowing, disco tank from space. Hmmmm, a bunch of the tetras with a bunch of the danios an assortment of laser corys, and multi-colored neon gravel with a disco ball. Do they make an aquarium safe disco ball?
I saw a plant so uniformly bright red, that at first I thought it was a plastic plant. Sorry I forgot the name. I’m sure the lights I have wouldn’t support it. Their 5000 gallon SW main display tank is supposed to be coming soon. I saw the random lighting storm mode display go off on one of their SW tanks. At first I thought they were having a malfunction. After watching it for awhile close up and feeling like I was going to have a seizure—I determined this nifty advanced feature might not be for me. They had a SW puffer I had never seen before—a Guineafowl Puffer. Really pretty.
Finally I saw the thing that really made me think to myself maybe the Mayans were right about 2012. I’m not against breeding hybrids in ornamental fish. I keep goldfish and bettas—some sources believe they are at this point hybrids. It’s very common in the plant world. I looked into one of the last tanks at the back near the exit. I thought man, that looks like a cross between a parrot cichlid and a Flowerhorn. I asked one of the staff. It was.
