That was thought provoking...None of the above. What possesses me doesn't seem to be any of those things in particular. I think it is possibly just a wonder of the ocean's life and the interaction of that life in general.

I think my ultimate fantasy would be to have a great big window looking into a well lit part of the ocean where anything might show up if you looked long enough. You would probably see something that no one else has ever seen before, just because you took the time to look carefully.

I totally agree Untamed; I spend hours looking at our tank. I think I see things that no one else has patience to see. Most people come over an look in and say "what is that green thing?" pointing at the weird calciferourous stick, when I point out that there is sooo much life and diversity in the tank they glaze over and head in the opposite direction. I love watching the tank, sometimes I get up in the middle of the night just to see what's going on in there - that must be an addiction of some kind! It blows my mind how much is living in there!

I have to choose "none of the above" for the same reasons as untamed. Hey Brad...do you think we could afford that window if we went halfers? To see life that no one else has ever seen before would be the ultimate thrill. It would be as good or better than getting in a space shuttle and heading for Mars.

Actually...one thing that I intend to do is to buy my way onto one of those deep sea submersibles someday. That's right there with going to space, and has to be a bit safer!
