mosspearl Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 They're opening a cat cafe in Portland (about 100 miles from us). They're all the rage in Japan and are slowly making their way here. Why not an aquarium cafe? Think how relaxing it would be to have your coffee or tea while watching a peaceful aquarium. Sure, throw a few cats in there to cuddle, too. Why not? aquariumlover10, Crazyfishlady, Soothing Shrimp and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyeGuy411 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 On top of being addicted to shrimp I am utterly and hopelessly obsessed with my cat. People just dont understand. Pika, Crazyfishlady and Shrimpie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aquariumlover10 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Now I miss my cat, i got a cat before I moved and we where on a 10acre farm, and, he ate or was bitten by something poisonous, and it died :'( and then my mom tried to pick him up so we could take him to the vet and he bit her, so I couldn't even have him cremated or hurried because they thought he had rabies.

Soothing Shrimp Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Aquarium cafe would be awesome. Coincidentally , I was just talking to my wife about something similar and how that would be a great idea for someone to do. mosspearl, Shrimpie and aquariumlover10 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyfishlady Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 aquariumlover that is sad, I am so sorry Soothing - I can just imagine comfy chairs set up around tanks, some solo and some where people can chat. Then, of course, there would be a shrimp store in the back where they can start up their own shrimp addiction! Or, they can just come in and enjoy them. Might be hard to have kitties roaming too since that would discourage those with allergies Ok - which of you is going to start this up? mosspearl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I could so see large aquariums for walls. mosspearl and aquariumlover10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyfishlady Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Oh and it MUST have a jelly fish one. I still remember going to an aquarium that had a large oval. The bottom of the oval was under the ground (so it made a sort of arch) they had black lights and I could have sat there and watched them all day!

mosspearl Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Wish I could. It sounds like a lot of fun. It could be like the tea shop that's near us... its theme is antiques. Once you've enjoyed your food and the decor, you can walk through to the adjoined space and buy antiques. Could do the same for all those aquatic goodies. Maybe I should bring it up to the guy who owns the best fish store we have locally. He's got all the stock to make it happen. It could become a thing.

Crazyfishlady Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 That would be amazing! I would even drive down to Oregon just to go there Even though I'm in WA state that is saying something because I don't do long drives. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrimpie Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Yeah, we could all come in with our TDS meters and our PH meters and order up coffee and scones (or coffee cake) and talk shrimp!!! I'm so down for that. We drive to Oregon often to visit my sister, so we could visit the café in Oregon! Crazyfishlady 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANBU Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I went to Vietnam this summer to Dalat. The weather is very nice there, some of the cafe places has display shrimp tanks. Drinking coffee + watching shrimps is nice! mosspearl, Crazyfishlady and Shrimpie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibikaie Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 When I go to visit Monster, stopping for bubble tea is practically a requirement already. Having the two together would be pretty awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
