Amazing. Just amazing. And the fact that you take the time to document it all and respond to people's comments. You are Superman. Other kids: "Wanna come over my house? We have a real pinball machine!" Your kids: "Uh, yeah, okayyy . . ."
Thanks for checking it out!! :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

Hopefully when my kids are asked to share something unique about them they will have plenty to talk about LOL!!

It’s been a great family hobby! As my kids get older they seem to have even more fun sharing the Aquarium with others.

We love this stuff!!
