two problems, not coordinated ,

1/ error printout seems to be sinev you are $including /etc/rndc.key but lacking
read access or running chroot without it in the jail. 

2/ your zonefile looks ok, although VERY low TTL is used ( 5m ) This will
harm caching everywhere, and might disturb your Internet comminucation.
Your webserver is ( by my definition broken) since it forces use of flash 
at entry. This interferes with every non-ms browser on earth. Well, it's your
descition if you want to exclude us...

And both "atlantis-aquatics.com" and "www.atlantis-aquatics.com" gives me 
this slap-in-my-face ( i assume they work :-)

For clarity, this is your zonefile as a zone-xfer shows it :
$ORIGIN atlantis-aquatics.com.
