Kitchen aquarium and snail snatching – P365 Nov11

Today, the Marine Aquarium Society of Victoria (MASOV) had its monthly meeting at a new member's place. What was special about Craig's tank was its location - the kitchen. Never before have we seen a tank in a kitchen, let alone one so spectacular. In addition, Craig uses a number if interesting and radically different techniques and ideas for building and filtering his tank. I won't go into details here, but I'll say that it was an eye-opening experience for the members, and had everyone thinking about how Craigs techniques might be adapted to their own tanks, and if it would be something worth trying. Here's a few pics from Craig's tank: After the meeting, Craig took a few of us down to his local aquarium shop where he gets his sand and snails - the beach! The number of snails here was staggering, so we didn't feel too guilty taking a few to live in our tank. It was a beautiful day, and I enjoyed taking photos of the rock pools, and some 3D photos of the area. Please read this post to learn how to see 3D images. Below is the full gallery of the best photos from the day. Please have a look through them all. Some of the 3D photos in particular are very cool.
