    Ok, well here's the last of them. I have just thrown in all the rest here. You got a mix of shrimp, lobster, rock fish, bass, eels, etc... in no particular order.

    Thanks. Good luck with your HOB overflow, make sure it don't happen again.
    Yeah, plus my wife was getting a little mad at me spending 10 hrs uploading and posting pics all day, haha.

    Yup, everything they have there can be found in the Pacific, coldwater and tropical. Some of the species they have are threatend or endangered by over-fishing, etc. They have information posted on just about all the major tanks about the fish inside.
    I did notice some differences in local nomenclature for some of the fish. For example - Blue/Hippo/Regal Tang they call Palette Tang...

    Last video, this one is of the reef. This one is a little blurry, but what else can you expect when thousands of greasy little hands from all the field trip kids are touching the glass all day, as you may have noticed in other pics before. If anyone else goes, and you want good pics, I'd recommend bringing a windex bottle and a clean soft cloth to clean the glass.
