Tell me about it!
Your new pic looks good, dude!

And here's what the area looks like now...
There's still a show for the Lions Mane Jelly. I just moved that, their tank, and the Giant Pacific Octopus tank. No changes were made to the Giant Squid tank. I think the restaurant is still in the same location, too.

Here's a closeup of the way the Jelly tank looked originally after the redo...

And here's what it looks like now. I had to do some modifications to fit in another stand. The jellys don't seem to be as grumpy after the shows.

And here's a look at the Pacific Octopus exhibit...

Here's the last pic for tonight...I also made changes near the water area. Instead of allowing guests to walk on the side of the area and access more exhibits from there, I decided to turn the area into an exit from the watering hole and a rest area...

Enjoy!

Its always a pleasure to see your new zoos, Firehawke. I love those boat houses; if only we could get such nice attractions for ZT2....

Looking good Firehawke! Your attention to layout is amazing, I wish I had that much patience!

I love the the way the jelly tank and show is set up, that's really cool!

Thanks guys!!!

Since last week was Spring Break, I took the time to add a lot more to the zoo. I added all of the coastal animals and the sharks. I'm going to be mean and just give you guys one pic for now (I hope to post more on Friday). It's a look at the next show area. This show tank features shows for the California Sea Lion and the Southern Sea Otter. I did end up adding a couple more stands. The animals like their exhibits and so far there has been no problem with the animals trying to return to the wrong exhibit.

Also, the zoo got many awards last week. On Aug 14, yr 6, the zoo got the Zoo of the Year award. On Nov 13, yr 6, Best Zoo Gold. Jan 19, yr 7, 1,000th guest. And Sept 7, yr 5, highest customer satisfaction. Zoo rating right now is around 97. All that's left to add is the porpoise and whale sections.

Enjoy the pic!

Well, it's Friday and it's time to post pics. (looks at calendar). It's Monday?!?!?! How did that happen? Oh, well.

It's time to move on to the coastal animals. Here's the pacific walrus exhibit and next to them is the elephant seal exhibit (with statue!)

Here's an overview of that area. You can see the corner of the penguin and polar bear exhibits.

One last pic for now. Does this look right to you???

Looks great so far!

But, I don't see what's wrong in the last pic.

I agree too with Kiwibuddy. :bounce: Great zoos.

Very nice work as always, FH! I'm no expert on zt1, in fact where IS that disk? rofl, but I see nothing amiss with the tank portal either.

Zookreeper · « **Reply #1490 on:** March 27, 2007, 05:18:06 AM »

Pics, I finally get to see some. They look good, no wasted space! I look forward to seeing more of your handywork!

Bengal_Tiger · « **Reply #1491 on:** March 27, 2007, 08:25:21 AM »

Great pics! Although I see nothing wrong with the tank filter...

In this pic, the person you see circled is the marine specialist I have in charge of all of the shows. Check out how they try to get to the Lions Mane Jelly tank

I let the worker swim around for a while and then I just pick them up and put them on a path a ways away.

Firehawke · « **Reply #1494 on:** March 30, 2007, 05:12:22 PM »

The new show area has become quite popular!

Firehawke · « **Reply #1495 on:** March 30, 2007, 05:17:34 PM »

Here's an overview shot featuring the rest of the shore animals. I decided to include the Polar Bear and Emperor Penguin even though they're not on the MM list

Firehawke · « **Reply #1496 on:** March 30, 2007, 05:24:12 PM »

Last pics for today are overviews of the shark area. This area also includes the saltwater crocs and green moray eels. There's even a great white shark show! You can also see the food court. The mermaid exhibit can be seen next to the food court

Enjoy!

Nicely done Firehawke. I have seen workers try to cut though exibits to get where they want to go too. I have a word for them" idjits". As in stupid idjit!!

LadyZookeeperNY · « **Reply #1498 on:** March 30, 2007, 07:54:55 PM »

FH, that is an awesome marine zoo--wow, that's a lot of work that you've put in to it! I really love the diverse designs of each exhibit. Your show area is to die for!! Love it all!!

ZK--now we're speaking the same language...I know that word!

Panda King · « **Reply #1499 on:** March 31, 2007, 07:08:21 PM »

You and Xtreme were the two best Zoobuilders way back when. I'm glad to see that you still keep up the good work.

KEEP IT UP, FIREHAWKE!
