Bala sharks are great. They look like they would be aggressive, but actually they are very calm as long as they are in schools. I had several in Monterey. One disappeared though. Weirdest thing. I checked everywhere, inside and outside of the tank and nothing. Disappeared.

Red Tailed Sharks, on the other hand, are really aggressive. They're pretty but sometimes can be mean. Especially if there are two in a tank. Very territorial.

During the 1994 earthquake one of my dad's sharks jumped out of the tank and ended up 15 feet away against a wall. It took us hours to notice him.

I don't know why, but fish scare me. I avoid aquariums. At the dental office where Erica used to work they have an aquarium and I had to not look at it. The koi that Tramspotter has are going to jump out of their pond and eat me or something. The koi at the DLH skeeve me. The photo that I posted of baby Sharky! is creeping me out.

I think it's the scales because sharks, whales, dolphins and other sea life don't bother me.

My theory is that it jumped out as your dad's shark did and then ended up as Corgi bait. That's my theory anyway.

I purchased a crab for my tank in Monterey, it was no fun. It kept climbing into the filter resevoir and stayed there eating the gunk off of the filter sponge.

As for the other kind of crabs, don't know about them.

I completed sealing the aquarium on Sunday. I used a silicone sealant that needs to cure for 7 days. I could test it before the 7 day deadline, but I was advised to let it cure for as long as possible before adding water to test it.

I took pictures on Sunday and have yet to download them. They aren't exciting yet...

I also sanded and painted my stand and brought it home to display a 20 gallon tank I already have. I need to find a way to secure the stand to the wall. I noticed that when I walk near it, it does wobble a little. I'd hate for a 55 gallon tank of water to fall.

If you have any suggestions, I'd appreciate them. The stand is wrought iron and has no holes drilled into the legs at all for me to screw in a brace. Other stands that I have had in the past did...

Could you screw some Mouting Head Cable Ties into the wall using dry wall anchors, and then zip the tie around the leg?

That's a good idea. I'm going to look into it.
