June 2019 - Cresta Aquarium

It has finally opened ...



Salty all the way

All is synthetic by the looks of it ...

In a tank that deep, providing lighting that penetrates deep enough for coral needs becomes costly, if not impractical. Fish that hang around coral structures still enact typical behaviours with the fake pieces, with the exception of those that eat or are symbiotic with them.

Looks like they're following the Middle Eastern trend of putting aquariums in malls. My hope is that this inspires the public to take more interest in the aquatic world.

Still need to visit this mall, but looks like a nice tank. Will be fantastic when all those fish grow up, too.
