Index of "clickable" and "zoomable" images from 8/23/00

Click on virtually anything alive in photos for identification and information
Information pops up in smaller frame to the left.
Zoom in for closeup views of some photos.

Some images have many things to click on - sometimes even small details are clickable.
Particularly useful if viewing the tanks in person and wish to identify an organism.
Follow the links in pages that pop up to find closeups, diagrams, and even a short movie.


Have fun exploring Augsburg's Reef and Seagrass Aquaria!

A few words about species ID's:
Some of the organisms in our aquaria are difficult to identify even for specialists, and I don't currently have definitive identifications for many of these species. Consequently, you should not use this site as a key for precise identification of organisms. In some cases I do know the genus and species with some certainty, but in other cases I know only the genus or not even that (e.g. many of the sponges, some corals, and others). So, in some cases I resort to general descriptions (e.g. "orange encrusting sponge", or "boulder coral"), or to common names used in the aquarium trade (e.g. "Red Sea Xenia").


Coming Attractions:

Things to look for in the upcoming months:

A gradual increase in the descriptive biological information on the species shown in the clickable photos.
The photos of the seagrass tank will be turned into clickable photos.
