randoms from the baltimore aquarium

Postby mr_X » April 10th, 2007, 8:52 pm

first i have to apologize. 90% of the tanks needed to be cleaned. alot of algae covering the acrylic, and the fact that i was working with a camera i had never used before this day, which seemed to pick up every single scratch in the acrylic tanks, really bummed me out. needless to say, the new frog exhibit came out good, due to the new glass!

all in all, i felt the 25.00 a person entrance fee was a bit steep. i have seen 100X better tanks on reefs' members tank threads. what you all lost in the size catagory, you more than made up with the quality!

anyways..here they are.....the ones i could salvage anyway....

Nice pictures of the waxy monkey frogs.

Dendrobates azureus is one of my favorite frogs (the blue dart frogs idk the common name lol that’s sad).
