This is why you should never trust anything that doesn't have a spine.

I was starting to wonder if anyone clicked the link and if I were alone in thinking "coolest thing ever!". (which on the internet has a shelf-life of about 22 minutes anyway)

"Each week" they had "shark carcases" in the tank.  :rotf:

Can you imagine? "What's up with this guys?"  :rotf:

Dunno why that slays me.

I was interested:  primarily because I hit that aquarium at least once a year when I was growing up.

Don't think I ever saw that kind of 'Wild Kingdom' action when I was there though.

OMG!  That is some video.  Just last week Vicki McKenna was talking about having a pet octopus once and how intelligent they are.  She had a feeder tank of blue gills for some other type of fish and one day she forgot to seal the octopus' tank and when she came home she thought it had gotten out and died until she followed its slime trail and found it on wall, it had gotten out of the tank and apparently was getting into the feeder tank.

It's no wonder that H. P. Lovecraft made one of his main villains and octopus god.
