>I am really looking forward to a change of subject too.
>So hereby I'll introduce a new question:
>
>We are going to renew our water area next year. New water bassins, 
>new exhibits and new flooring.
>At present we have a gutter around the water bassin, covered with a 
>wooden grid.
>The floor itself is a resin, water proof and finished  with a 
>(supposedly) anti slip layer (a transparant coating with small 
>irregularities in it).
>
>We are not really satisfied about this floor: the gutter is cleaned 
>once a week but the wood is heavy to lift out, the floor does get 
>slippery when wet and is difficult to clean beacuse of the 
>irregaularities.
>
>So we are looking for a better solution.
>Any suggestions on good, easy to maintain water flooring? or 
>comments on flooring you are not satisfied about?
>
