The B. Dalton up the street from here has the books on aquaria in with the 
nature books (next to the "Audobon Birds of North America" etc.) and Crown
Books across the street from Daltons also has them in that section. Dogs,
Cats, and Parrots are under "Pets" in both stores.

rec.(misc, sci)aquarium is not confusing. I don't know anyone who has a pet
aquarium, do you?
