Default Largest Aquarium

Have you seen a very large aquarium in your life? I did. I was in Japan for work 2 years ago. I did have the chance to go to Miyajima. It was my very first time to see a very large aquarium with so many different fishes in it. It was one of my most wonderful and unforgettable experiences in this lifetime.

Just searched for MiyaJima, about which i never knew before.
I have not seen many aquariums but i do know about fishes and their habitats and i try to observe them closely through an aquarium that i have, which has 60 fishes of different kinds in it.

Thats the biggest i have owned and seen till now. And a lot of care and dedication is required to save them and make them lead a life of pleasure.

Miyajima is not known for their large aquarium. I think they just added that museum as one of the tourist attractions. People go there for the mountain and the wonderful trees and some animals not for mainly for the aquarium

I love visiting aquariums! I guess the largest I've ever been to is Ripley's Aquariums in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.

Do you remember the movie Jaws where the people could wall through the clear tunnel and see the fish (and sharks) in the ocean? Ripley's has a tunnel like that, but of course it's not in the ocean....just goes under their huge aquarium.

It is so neat to see the fish, turtles, and even sharks (hammer heads and the ones with saw-like noses) swimming over your head.

I haven't been to any aquararium expect one, Tarapoorewala Acquarium in Mumbai, India which i found to be quite informative. The government plans to build an underwater aquarium which sounds exciting

I too have been there and its good for fish lifestyle learners and for those who are going to be related to fish in future. I plan to visit couple more big aquariums later this year, and one of them might be in Delhi, India.

And the proposed underwater aquarium should be an interesting one
