Places in Cowtown where you've seen saltwater tanks (excluding fish stores!)

[kien]

So the other day the wife and I were dining out and we noticed that the establishment had a saltwater tank. I started wondering about other places in town that have saltwater tanks (other than fish stores!) as well and thought it would be cool to get a list together. I know of a tonne of others but I have not seen them in person so I'll let those who have chime in :)

=========================================
Seoul Korean BBQ - Macleod Trail - 100g(ish) FOWLR :)
Edgemont club -
Chinese Buffet place - at deerfoot mall - 75 or 100 gal
Stempede Toyota -
Country Hills Toyota -
Fuji Yama - downtown -
Varsity Towers Appartments - - FOWLR

Stopped at the Solo liquor store on Glenmore and Barlow last week and noticed the computer repair shop next door was building a large tank not sure if fresh or salt though, guess I'll have to stop by for another six-pack in a couple weeks.

Catching up here... lol

The Children's Hospital also has a saltwater aquarium, not sure on the size, but its pretty big!

Unfortunately, whoever is running the show has made it look like more of a freshwater tank. I don't have the time or experience to help out in matters, though do know who to contact if someone else is so inclined.

The tank is along a wall near the west court area on the main floor.

Yep. It's "Seoul Korean BBQ". I was there last Friday. It's looking a little rough (the tank that is), but the Galbi and Bolgogi is fantastic.

Went there for some bodywork 2 years ago and saw a very well stocked FOWLR.
The fish were beautiful and the tank was clean, but it seemed a bit crowded.
They had a lot of my favorites and they were a good size, so it was pretty memorable.

Pang Pang Chinese/Vietnamese Restaurant in deer run has a fish only tank. But it looks quite gloomy. Some nice fish in it though.

When I was winter tire shopping last fall, had gone over to Tireland http://tinyurl.com/5ukeuub (http://tinyurl.com/5ukeuub) (google map) and had noticed in the far corner I'd think ~ 100 gal tank. Although did not go over to look and see if it was salt or fresh.
