This attraction has been open for over 15 years and, I made my first visit yesterday.
Over 100 photos were taken and, I'll probably go back there again, to do some more.
A traveler could easily spend more than a few hours observing sea life in this attraction.
The cost per person is under $20.00 or, 2,000 Japanese Yen.
There must be hundreds of species living together in the saltwater tanks.
The building is climate controlled so, it's always comfortable, even when the weather isn't.
It can become crowded but, watching people is as entertaining as, watching fish.
Some people do travel reviews and complain about crowds of Chinese tourists. Don't know why.
I love Chinese. Especially takeout orders of Chow Mein and Chop Suey!
This aquarium has successfully bred corals and some fish in captivity. That's a first.
They haven't tried humans, yet from my personal observations but, you never know.
Divers in the tank stay busy, cleaning and avoiding big sharks.
More than likely, they don't even think about breeding, while they are in the aquarium.
The fish tanks were constructed using 603 MM thick plastic glass.
That means the fish tank walls are about two feet thick, according to my calculations.
This attraction can be educational for children, as well as, adults.
That boy will become a photographer. I can tell.
Churaumi keeps the environment as natural as possible for creatures of the deep blue sea.
