A fun aquarium scene for BluecanLee on twitter- a challenge to get out of my usual color-comfort zone, but a great excuse to break out the fluorescent pink. Gouache, colored pencil, and acrylic on watercolor paper.

Have a little cut of some videos of fish I took at the Haus des Meeres (Ocean House) in Vienna today!

They have reptiles, birds and monkeys too!

Also the building is a remodeled Wehrturm (air defence tower and bunker in the 2 worldwar). It's 11 stories high. (I hope I wrote that right)

Edit:

Here's a floorplan:

Clownfish

Clownfish are small saltwater fish that are good for beginner saltwater tank keepers as they are peaceful and easily cohabbed with other species of fish. Clownfish require a 20 gallon tank with a salinity of 1.021 to 1.026 at 22°c to 27°c.

Clownfish are omnivores and it's recommended you feed them a mix of both plant and animal foods such as live brine shrimp, bloodworms, and many different types of vegetables, fish pellets and flakes are also available but be sure to check if all the nutrients required in a clownfishes diet are present in the food

It's recommended that clownfish are kept with an anemone in their tank, which would require a tank with 50 gallons or more capacity. Clownfish are communal fish and prefer to be kept in groups of 5 or more fish. However, you should never mix species of clownfish in the same tank as this will cause aggression in the clownfish.

If an anemone is not provided, it's required that some sort of hide is provided for the clownfish either in the form of tank decor or other corals, there's also silicon anemones that work as substitutes for the real thing.

clownfish are really adorable fish! they don't get overly big, and i think they're sweet little creatures. Their colours are super vibrant, and because of their peaceful nature, they're super easygoing with most other species of peaceful fish.

Every once in a while, it’s nice to stop and watch fish swim, and corals grow. And watch Flat Stanley do his hover-swim.

I'm transitioning from a freshwater aquarium to a saltwater aquarium today. I started out by going to two pet shops nearby to ask their opinion: could I just dump some salt in my freshwater tank and go from there?

No, ma'am, you most certainly cannot. Three different people told me that. So here I went, emptying it out:

Here's my canister filter about to get vinegar-ed (I chose vinegar instead of bleach because I didn't trust myself to use bleach):

I couldn't get all the water out, so I used every towel in the house to first empty the water, then clean the tank with vinegar and water, and then the rest of the towels in the house to soak up all the vinegar water.

So fresh and so clean!

Here is my tank after dumping new sand (can't use the old sand because it's got bacteria that could harm my saltwater stuff), filling with water (that got on the walls, and the ceiling, and all over the floor while I wrestled the hose), water conditioner, and 75 gallons worth of salt into it. Now we wait!

I plan on using my current 10 gallon saltwater tank to seed this one. I have a black clown fish and a damsel that I can put in in about a week after I have the filter media seed it. Yay saltwater!

i would just like to say how much i love my clownfish sh is so silly and likes to chase her tail, play with her reflection, eat kelp, and follow me when i walk near her tank she is just really cute and i know that she loves me even though everyone else is convinced that she's just a stupid fish

in the mornings when i come downstairs to go to the rink she comes and greets me and it makes me so happy to have a little friend and when i say her name she pokes her head out from her rock

also she has the cutest little markings, in some places her white part bleeds out of the lines so she looks like a toddler coloured her :)

My favorite thing about myself is that when i decided to get into aquariums i almost didn’t even want to keep shrimp and just wanted fish but now whenever i go to the pet store I’ll go look at the aquatic centers and go 😗 hmmmmmm at the Hundreds of different fishies but then I’ll turn around and Gasp jaw on the floor and freak out over the sight of any Crustacean the size of my hand. Craydads lobsters saltwater shrimp vampire shrimp……lidderly enamored with red water bugs and i mean it
