Don't get too excited. It's pretty tiny. Maybe I'll finally snap some photos tomorrow. I don't feel like I got anything done today. Spent several hours acclimating more large Atlantic rays. You haven't seen a shipping box till you've got a 200lb plywood box for one fish...and we had four of them. 20 boxes of fish today. Several DOA and several that should not have been shipped in the condition they were in...
that's where the business side of things shows rears it's ugly head.
Here's how you ship large creatures
Here's what comes in those boxes
Just got this lady in today, she came in a 55 gallon plastic drum

Cool pics, but a question about the Jellyfish room. I thought they couldn't be housed in tanks with corners or else they would get stuck.
We call it the jelly room because four of the tanks are rounded tanks for jellyfish (the three round tanks in the fake rock face you cans see). There are four square tanks as well, that will house non-jellyfish coldwater fish. Jellyfish, gunnel, sculpin room just doesn't have the same ring.
Gotcha, you're right-jelllyfish room does sound a bit better. You could probably house just a single jellyfish in a 2g tank and still be able to call the room that.
Didn't see you out there this weekend, though there were a lot of people so I might have missed you. Every time I saw a black guy I would do a double take and think "Hey, was that Eddie?". Ha. Did you make it out?
