Is this what you saw in Turkey?
Also check out some of these weird Malaysian varieties:

Re: My 2 cents worth
I've never been quite sure why looking at and appreciating beautiful butterflyfish is acceptable for any gender, but doing the same with butterflies is only acceptable for girls, and sissy behavior...

Re: The Sachs Aquarium WISHLIST
Interesting! I've never seen a picture of a young fry (pup? whatever). Looks exactly like the parents. I guess they don't go through any form changes.

Re: Coelacanth
I still want to see footage of one actually swimming. Their lobed fins are supposed to move like a horse galloping. Weird, and fascinating. And probably pretty dang tough to duplicate if Jim ever...

Re: Nautilus
Actually, apostrophe-s doesn't belong. It is the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. Went there just once. Really cool place, at least when I was there.

Re: Nautilus
Hmm, that's interesting about Sea World. I had always thought that their marine displays were at least moderately enjoyable (though nowhere near the Long Beach Aquarium or Shedd's) -- but then...

Re: Nautilus
Also, they have chambered nautiluses at Sea World. However, as far as I knew, they are NOT reef animals, so I think they'd look pretty silly in a brightly lit reef tank. Yes, I know this is an...

Re: Chase-cam feature
DL, I don't know if you've ever seen a screensaver called VR Man's Aquarium, but it had exactly the kind of chase cam feature you describe. The screensaver featured a completely 3D freshwater...

Re: The Sachs Aquarium WISHLIST
Actually, a 12-hour photoperiod, while more than I'd recommend, is still right at the highest end of acceptable. You do run the risk of an algae bloom, but algae is more dependent on the level of...

2. Go into Winamp and start AVS.
3. Double-click on the AVS display.
4. Highlight all of the...

Re: Fish Suggestion
Minor correction: I believe it is spelled "goby," not "gobi", and "blenny", not "blennie." Also the Mandarin "Gobi" in the wishlist is actually a Mandarin Dragonet -- not a member of the goby...

Re: The Sachs Aquarium WISHLIST
I've used the name "Coelacanth" for quite some time now in various forums and in online gaming. A lot of people have no idea what it is; some gamers thought it was a name from a fantasy book or...

Re: The Sachs Aquarium WISHLIST
I'm surprised that no one has requested one of my favorite fish, the long-horned cowfish. OK, it's not really a reef aquarium fish (it should be kept in a fish-only tank), but then again, neither...
