seaworld reefs

[KBennett]

Just got back from seaworld Orlando.  They only have 2 reef tanks with live coral, but they were awesome.  A lot of the colonies were huge!  The stag horn in the one tank had to be 3 feet high!

Unfortunately they had a lot of horribly sick looking fish.  Why do fish in places like that always look sick? 


There was a fake reef that had a lot of huge unicorn, vlamini and lieutenant tangs.
Pics when I get back.

Sorry, the big one was Acanthurus xanthopterus. It had to be 2 feet long.  There were lieutenant tangs in that tank too though.

As promised.

Not the best pics, but you get the idea.

Atlantis tank:





This tank was in the entrance to the manta exhibit:






Anyone know what this is?  It was actually at Epcot.  About the size of a golf ball.  It was really bright light pink and green.  Some sort of leather?
