This aquarium was about the size of our apartment. Maybe we'll install one just like it when we build our own house!

 

Very cool tank there on the left...  This is the place where they keep all the rays. You can actually see them in the picture below. These are some of the coolest looking animals in the ocean - in my humble opinion, of course!

 

Now let me tell you something you just may not know about the venerable little Horseshoe Crab I'm holding here. They tell me this creature is completely safe to handle, BUT...

Do you see that tail sticking out the back of that thing?!? Well let me assure you that it does not matter how completely safe the little sea creature is, because if that pointy little tail happens to reach out and touch someone, and that someone happens to be YOU, well, that little horseshoe crab AND you just might be getting ready to take a SWIM while you do the "GET ME OUTTA HERE" dance!!!
