In 'THE NEW VIDEO AQUARIUM" there are                   two fish-filled aquariums.               

HUMA TRIGGER

RED LIONFISH

SQUIRRELFISH

SOHAL TANG

CLOWN TRIGGER

PADDLEFIN WRASSE

SNOWFLAKE EEL

PORCUPINE PUFFER

BLUEFACE ANGEL

HIFIN SNAPPER

SKUNK GROUPER

HENIOCUS BUTTERFLY

The above photo doesn't show all the fish in the aquarium so we've illustrated and named them to the left. 

When you view the DVD you'll see that the PADDLEFIN WRASSE (not shown above) is always swimming at the top of the tank. There are two aquatic creatures in this tank who seem to be camera shy.  The first is the PORCUPINE PUFFER who prefers swimming up and down out-of-sight on the right side of the screen, coming into view now and then.  The SNOWFLAKE EEL can be seen peeking out behind the pink shell above on the left of the screen.     The EEL makes one trip across the aquarium. All the    other colorful and exotic fish are constantly swimming in and out of view.

The HUMA TRIGGER fish (seen above at the bottom center) is an Hawaiian fish immortalized in song by the  late singer, Don Ho himself. In Hawaii the fish has a much longer name: HUMUHUMU NUKUNUKU APUA'A, which means in Hawaiian "water pig with a needle"  referring to the grunting noise they make and their spiny dorsal "trigger." It is also known as the PICASSO TRIGGER, obviously for it's beautiful and unusual art like markings.

People have asked if this is a "real aquarium."  Of course it is. It's not an animated screen saver that repeats every few minutes. It's whatever happened in one hour in the real aquarium in the Pilot's Lounge of  AirFlite, an aviation service corporation located at the Long Beach Airport, Long Beach, California. It was designed, installed and is  maintained by Phil Lam of Aqua Design in Mission Viejo, CA.  

 The second aquarium is:   THE LIVING REEF  

ROYAL GRAMMA

YELLOW TANG

FLAME ANGEL

GREEN CHROMIS

ARABIAN  PSEUDOCHROMUS

FROGSPAWN CORAL

GREEN STRIPED CORAL

ROSE ANEMONE CORAL

RED/GREEN BRAIN CORAL

MUSHROOM LEATHER CORAL

CROCEA CLAM

The above photo features  the living corals one might find when scuba diving deep in the ocean. Again not all the fish are out front so we've illustrated and named them to the left. 

Coral is a substance that is formed by the skeletons of tiny sea animals called polyps. Most coral polyps live together in colonies. They attach themselves to each other with a flat sheet of tissue. Coral polyps remove calcium out of the sea water to build their limestone skeletons.  When the animals die, they leave their limestone "skeletons" which become the foundations of barriers and ridges called coral reefs.  Live, healthy coral is often brightly colored. Large coral groups form rounded or branching masses. A strip or ridge of solidified coral at or near an ocean surface is called a coral reef.

This LIVING REEF aquarium was the pride of the Shaffer family in Irvine, CA. It also was designed, installed and maintained by Phil Lam of Aqua Design in Mission Viejo, CA.

Have you seen the  movie "THE LONELY GUY" starring STEVE MARTIN? That's our first "Video Aquarium" that he watches towards the end of the film.  His buddy in the movie, actor CHARLES GRODIN was watching our "Original Video Fireplace" earlier in the film. To our dismay, the fireplace was cut although there is still a reference to "putting on the fireplace."
