Subject: Omnarium

        I just received a "National Wildlife" catalog from the National
Wildlife
Federation.  It contains an advertisement for "The Omnarium", a semi
closed
aquarium system containing aquatic plants and tropical fish. The
manufacturer
is the same company that produces "The Ecosphere", a closed (sealed)
marine
system featuring shrimp, algae, and snails.
        Anyone played with the Omnarium yet?  It quite honestly looks
like
a
glorified version of the plastic one-gallon hex tanks that have become
popular

I saw them at the "Pets 99" show in Tampa, FL this past month.  It's ok
for one or two fish.  The bigger models open at the bottom to put fish
and plants and other stuff into it, then there was a small cap in the
top to feed by.  You still need to do a water change too.   JiM C.
