Cleaning the fish tank is never fun. Ask any tropical fish hobbyist with a pair of angelfish, some gravel and a few plastic plants.

Did they redo the front pane of that aquarium, it's been forever since I've gone but I seem to recall it it being much taller, that pane in picture 01/14 looks like it might be 10-15 feet tall max.
