impur Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 We went to Dallas over the weekend and checked out the aquarium. It was pretty good, though its more of an indoor zoo than an aquarium. But here are some pics from the trip! Walking up to the ticket counter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(laugh) Garrett i would love to get my hands on the big circular tank at seattle aquarium, throw some 1000w halides on that baby would make a great reef tank. I do have to admit that their clam exhibit is pretty nice though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
