jdl Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Seriously, the Art Institutes are such ####ty schools that I wouldn't even brag about going to one let alone calling it a high-end art school. Going to AI did nothing good for me and other than my student loan debts, I literally have nothing to show from going there because it sucked. So much that I can't even reference it professionally because my peers would laugh at me. Sweet! my buddy is in the same predicament down here @ lauderdale ai. he had an article posted on fb about a lawsuit against them for screwing their students financially. or something like that Quote Link to comment

fearofablackmetalplanet Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 this thread is full of great ideas, and all the esoteric artschool nerdery has made my slow day at work alot less boring! The drama has been as entertaining (or maybe moreso) than the aquascaping haha. Quote Link to comment

ajmckay Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Some nice reefs here. One thing I have on my mind though... How do the Japanese always have such cool tanks!? Like seriously... There are tons of awesome tanks on sites that I cannot read even. Massive coral grow out and the like. It's amazing. Not that there aren't any amazing tanks in the "west", but geez... Trick, thanks for linking to elsefailed's tank thread... It rocks hard! Quote Link to comment
lakshwadeep Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 I think the Japanese have the advantage since traditional Japanese aesthetics (like wabi-sabi) favor simplicity and natural forms, and those aesthetics are ingrained in most of their cultural activities. When you look at bonsai and ikebana (Japanese flower arrangements), it's not hard to imagine that aesthetic transferring to aquariums. 1 Quote Link to comment

There are tons of awesome tanks on sites that I cannot read even. Massive coral grow out and the like. It's amazing. They do seem to have access to the rare angels, tangs, gobies, and everything lol. They just seem to have a different style of reefing then us. Quote Link to comment
MedRed Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 They do seem to have access to the rare angels, tangs, gobies, and everything lol. They just seem to have a different style of reefing then us. I was friends with an importer of freshwater in Oregon. The distributors know that they can get way more money for things in some Asian and European markets than they can in the US. Some of the things he'd get in were shipped straight to Japan and weren't even offered here even though they would spend time on US soil. Quote Link to comment
animalmaster6 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 What about places like Blue Harbor in Japan? That would be amazing if we could get shipping access to them. Quote Link to comment
