I finally have (as of about this time last year, actually) the aquarium set up I've always wanted...one I've alluded to in my play, "The Aquarium", which I co-wrote with Allison McWood and was produced in the 2010 Toronto Fringe Festival. The characters, two roommates who lived in a flat they affectionately referred to as "The Aquarium", had a tank of frogs and fish, and that tank was half land and half water. This kind of set up is known as a paludarium, but they just called it their Aquarium. They would watch the antics of their frogs and fish...the daily dramas that would unfold before them, and the roomies wondered if an entity of some sort watched them, too, from above, as they watched their pets. This is the reason they call their own apartment The Aquarium. Turns out, someone *is* watching them from above...but that's giving away the story. To find out more, you can always read the play. ;)
At any rate, I have this awesome set up for some of my pets, some of whom are named after characters from "The Aquarium", by the way. I thought I'd post a few pictures of my paludarium, since Kev has had a chance to take some lovely pictures of it.
