Last weekend, my girlfriend and I paired up with some friends of mine (another couple) for a night on the town... They suggested we all eat at a restaurant called Cheddar's Casual Café in Hendersonville on Indian Lake Blvd. I had never been before, so I didn't know what to expect. We walk inside the subtly-lit elegant-ish dining area and the VERY first thing I notice is a huge wall mounted fish tank, guesstimately 8 feet wide, at least 4 feet tall! It was stocked with 4 or 5 large angelfish, some gouramis, 3 good sized plecos, and a couple schools of cardinal tetras. It was awesome, opened up some good conversation (me rambling about fish tanks), and it looked great!
The point of my story - Everybody enjoys aquariums! (duh, that's why we're here) I think it's great when businesses have them set up for the public to enjoy. I think we occasionally forget to sit back and enjoy the beauty of all our hard work. I know I need reminding from time to time. Then again... It may only have been the effects of their fantastic cocktails! ;D

I think every Cheddars in the country has a large tank. I asked them once at the one in Hendersonville about the size. I think it's a 500 gallon if I remember correctly.

Oh MY! That's the kind of tank I dream about at night!
