The main tank called the 'Kuroshio Sea' holds 7,500-cubic meters (1,981,290 gallons) of water and features the world's second largest acrylic glass panel, measuring 8.2 meters by 22.5 meters with a thickness of 60 centimeters. Whale sharks and manta rays are kept amongst many other fish species in the main tank.
 
My five year old daughter sat enthralled on my lap through watching that, lol. Now I don't think her 20 gallon tank is going to hold up to her expectations :D

I would hate to be on water change duty, lol.

(Yes, I realize it is probably automated.)

That is amazing! Have to watch it a few times though because there is so much to see, including those tiny divers! The people standing in front of the tank are even entertaining. :)

Plus full screen in HD was the best video quality I have ever seen on youtube.
 
Wow thats just amazing. Im gonna have to check this out next time I go to Japan
 
Very cool. I saw the large aquarium in Kobe, and my next one is Atlanta, but if I ever am in Japan again this will be on my list.
