Funny Things Kids say about your tank?

Gotta agree with Dez....I hear it daily

"So, since that rock is live, is it going to grow more rock?" Argh...seriously? We've even put up a well written sign detailing live rock...and they STILL ask

Another I hear often, "can I put that saltwater fish in my freshwater tank if I add some salt? I think it would look nice with my plants"

I love hearing kids ask "Is that a such and such?" when they identify it correctly, but feel as though it may not be real. It is especially funny when its something like an urchin, or a hermit crab that is walking, and they ask if its real, haha.

MagFloat Cleaners! Kids love these. I dont know what it is about them. Even adults go nuts, haha, but little kids dont get it and it drives them crazy. And from an angle on the tank (like looking through the side panel to the front), you cannot see out of the tank, so all you see is the inside part of the magnet. That gets a variety of hilarious reactions

"That rock is alive? How does it breathe underwater?" My 8 year old niece.

"Daddy, Why is that fish's face stuck in that plant?"
My daughter referring to my clown resting head first in a small GBTA


"That fish just ate the others ones poop... hehehehe"


After a while of rearanging corals
"Daddy, dont you get lonely in the basement all by yourself?"

I had a Black Spine Urchin before, and my daughter said to me first time she saw it " Daddy, are we ganna eat it when it gets bigger? " My family is Japanese, and sometimes we go to sushi restaurant, and my daughter likes uni (urchin).
