Am I wrong or is it smelling fishy here?

„An aquarium is a vivarium consisting of at least one transparent side in which water-dwelling plants or animals are kept. Fishkeepers use aquaria to keep fish, invertebrates, amphibians, marine mammals, turtles and aquatic plants.“

This is how Wikipedia explains the term aquarium.

You know what? I think my computer is an aquarium. It has one transparent side and I have found lots of water-dwelling animals in it. Wikipedia didn't say anything about water in an aquarium, not in these two sentences at least.

What do you say? You want proof for my theory? You think it's quite far-fetched?

So how do you explain these examples I found on Etsy?

Seahorses are fascinating animals. Did you know the male carries the eggs until they emerge from his brood pouch as fully developed, miniature seahorses?

This little fellow is not pregnant, but he sure is handsome. His recent territory is in the shop of Classic Designs by Theresa Mink.

The last few years many people began thinking all starfish, also called sea stars, are pink (they do that for the same reason many German children think cows are purple).

I don't think I'll have to say more except that that's not true. Starfish come in all kinds of colors, white with red knobby surface, red, blue, orange, purple, and yes, there are also pink ones.

I however found a rare one who can change colors just by turning around. How cool is that?

At the moment he is living with Gwenbeads.

Do you like jellyfish? No, I didn't mean to look at, I meant on your plate. About 12 species of jellyfish are harvested, mostly in Southeast Asia.

Browse the internet for recipes on cold jellyfish salad, jellyfish with vegetables from the wok or jellyfish burgers! Who? Me? If I have tried them? No, no, no … I'm vegetarian!

I am in love with these jellyfish, though. They come from Fireball Beeds by islandgirl and I wouldn't think of eating them!

You see? These are dwellers in Etsy's waters and I haven't even started with the fishes yet. There is so much more to see, come on, look around and enjoy!
