If I ever do set up that tacky tank they would be the centerpiece fish with some glo-fish up to the top and a few albino corys to fill out the bottom. Nice neon gravel, a few orange and red fake plants, and a bubble volcano in the middle... oh, and a sunken pirate ship of course.
My thoughts on genetic engineering: it's a risk we will take regardless of what religion, politics, or ethics tell us. We can't stop it any more then we could stop people from trying to reach the moon, create WOMD, or decide that earth isn't actually the center of the universe. Like our earliest ancestors playing with fire, we will get burned, but if we can avoid burning to death we will achieve great things with it.
