Florida Marlins: Planned aquariums trouble animal rights group

I like what Samson says, that the fish in the tank will be treated better than or as well as any fish have been treated. David does have a sense of humor. It is frickin tropical fish, not Willy or Flipper-I hope PETA has more on their agenda to deal with than an aquariam.

A classic from Samson:

 

"To suggest that the fish will be anything other than happy to be part of these aquariums will be silly. I'm sure they'd rather be in our aquariums than swimming around the Gulf right now."

I Lol'd.

YES. This is AWESOME. And the colors that the fans are wearing...if that's aqua blue or whatever they're tossing on our marlins it sure looks tealish.

Samsowned.

I'm not too keen on the idea that the ushers will allow children to stand in the aisles when there are people batting. If the kids want to check out the aquarium features, they should only be allowed to do it between innings.

I normally hate PETA but I think they're possibly right about stadium noise and stuff. A full house is bound to make the entire venue and the aquarium shake and vibrate. Though I could be wrong

 

 

This seems like absolutely awesome idea though

Was anything said about the Rays Touch Tank at Tropicana. I know its not enclosed but water still has the reverberation to it especially in an enclosed stadium. The Freaking Top of the Tank is open for Long Balls to plop in and kill the fish in one hit, granted it hardly happens.
