Heyo all, wife of Trafish here! I accidently gave Trav the wrong names at the end. Lil’ Joe was born in the wild about 26 years ago and orphaned soon after. He’s lived in a few other places before moving to Epcot and once even made a short, failed attempt at living in the wild again (he ate unhealthy things and nearly froze to death). It seems an orphaned manatee baby cannot learn from humans what he would have learned from his mom. It’s best for Lil’ Joe to stay at Epcot where his safety can be ensured. He has a climate controlled environment, plentiful healthy food, and a buddy. Lou has a completely different story. He was living a happy life in the wild until a boat collision cost him his tail. He looks a little rough, but having no tail does not interfere with his ability to get around well. The Cast Member giving the presentation explained that efforts were being made to rehabilitate Lou for an eventual return to the wild. Good news for Lou, but sad for Lil’ Joe when that happens. The look happy together!
Hey Trafish so I'm going to FL. Auqashella and since It will be my 1st time going East of Las Vegas in my entire 35 years of life I told my wife that we are going we are going to this aquarium and she's like do we have to…. I said to her said to her Ah yeah because when's the next time we're gonna have a chance to go to Florida. She hates me right now lol
Great day out..🐠 Love the channel, learned a lot from you as I was starting off, Thank you. You'd be a cool bud to have around. Happy holidays and spoil the new pooch 🎅
I have a huge question for you. How do I get rid of a build up on my tank from someone using a stick on background? I have soak paper towels in white distilled vinegar and let stand for three hrs, no charge. I also used several razor blades and scrape the side down, no change. I then used muriatic acid let soak for 2hrs no change. I then used Barkeeper friend, scrub with steel wool, no change
Kind of a tough question, I guess it depends on what was used to adhere the background. Was it just a normal plastic background or was it a big sticker?
@@TrafishAquatics that I don't know. I purchased the 130 gal tank from a lady who's mom had the fish tanks and had pass away. I do know that all of the tanks where fresh water only. I wish I could send you a photo of the stain for lack of a better word..

@@TrafishAquatics I'm sure he does.. good man 👍
The shrimp is not a peppermint shrimp. It's actually a cleaner shrimp.
Thanks for sharing. The Lionfish is the one up on the fan looking coral not the one one the bottom.
They were both lion fish, the camera wasn't picking up the front one that great for some reason
