Why do some aquariums have holes in the glass?

admin — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 13:39:30 +0000

I’ve noticed that many large aquariums seem to have 2 or more large holes in the glass at the back of the tank but I don’t understand why they’re there. What are the holes for?

Do you think keeping whales and other fish/animals in aquariums is cruel?

admin — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 05:39:55 +0000

I’ve always loved aquariums but I do understand when people argue that we should not be “supporting cruelty for entertainment”. I still feel a bit sorry for the aquarium staff when people say they hate the aquariums cause I honestly don’t think they have bad intentions, a number of the marine animals I’ve seen were actually rescued, not captured. What do you think about keeping them in captivity?

Discus fish update 10.04.11 – Sunshine with FDBWs!

admin — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 05:38:05 +0000

Description: —Read me— Recently I have placed an order on some freeze dried black worms that have finally been restocked after months of being sold out. I wasn’t too keen on purchasing a large amount since I was worried that my Discus fish won’t eat them anymore as they haven’t eaten them for months. It seems like I was wrong, they love eating the FDBWs! I still feed my Discus fish pellet food, beefheart mix. I still do at my best do regular water changes and wipe down the tank walls/floors. Tiger Turquoise 14 months old, 404 days old as at 10.4.11 DOB = March 1st 2010 Red Turquoise 13 months old, 375 days old as at 10.4.11 DOB = April 1st 2010 It has now been 301 days since these 4 Red turquoise and 1 Tiger turquoise are in my possession

Product Description

British director Andrea Arnold (Red Road) won the Cannes Jury Prize for the searing and invigorating FISH TANK, about a fifteen-year-old girl, Mia (electrifying newcomer Katie Jarvis), who lives with her mother and sister in the depressed housing projects of Essex. Mia?s adolescent conflicts and emerging sexuality reach boiling points when her mother?s new boyfriend (a lethally attractive Michael Fassbender [Hunger, Inglourious Basterds]) enters the picture. In her young career, Arnold has already proven herself to be a master of social realism (evoking the work of Mike Leigh and Ken Loach), investing her sympathetic portraits of dead-end lives with a poetic, earthy sensibility all her own. FISH TANK heralds the official arrival of a major new filmmaker.
