That Fish Place – That Pet Place Display Tanks – Late 2011

Here at That Fish Place – That Pet Place, our retail store display tanks are ever-changing.  Whether we add some new livestock, hook up the latest equipment or simply get bored with what’s out there, our tanks are in a constant state of flux. This blog takes a look at a few of these displays, and points out a couple highlights about their designs and the staff whom maintain them here at the store. As always, if you have any questions or comments regarding specifics or anything else about the tanks, feel free to shoot us an email at marinebio@thatpetplace.com or hit us up on Facebook or Twitter.
